"The music was presented in an engaging fashion that I could always connect with and enjoy."

"The guitar tone through the Leben RS-100U was so beautiful, so colorful, so outright wonderful that it was enough to bring tears to any guitarist's eyes. With the RS-100U in the signal chain something akin to magic happens"

"I found it hard to critically focus on what the RS-100U was doing, because the music was so compelling, all I wanted to do was sit back and soak it in".

Super-precision German UXB resistor of 0.1% error margin.
"EAO"(Germany) MKP Condensor
"Nichicon" audio-grade condensor "Fine Gold"
"ALPS" audio-grade volume for Volume and Balance controls.
