Build quality is impeccable and the sound equals that. I took the top off, as Curt suggested, it looks like a $2500.00 pre. I first tried it with my Rotel MB991, Boulder M80s and Ah 4000 with upsampler on my NorthCreek OkaraII with XO upgrades. I could hear through the music as if there are layers.

To make a long story short, I sold some stuff and ordered the Purist today. I liked the Purist so much I also ordered two MB100s.
