Love:
Graham Slee Schiit Cambridge Audio (Newer stuff) Exposure (Newer stuff) Dali TDL (Old) Denon Audiolab (Both older and newer) NAD Mission (90's stuff)
Hate: Puresound - Both the A10, A30 etc sounded crap. I'd rather own something from Icon Audio/Audio Note. NVA (Only the speakers) Royds Tannoy

I’ve never tried any Slee stuff but I am curious. They never look like they cost as much as they do, but too may Foo love them.
That Puresound stuff really should, be renamed Poorsound IMHO

I like the guys at Graham Slee. Very down to earth and polite. Graham is against ''Audiophile Parts'' as he finds most of it to be snake oil.
