    It's decent, but I find it burns through tubes too quickly, once every 10 months or so, which are not so easy to replace on the spot at a gig. I also have a Avalon U5, which is NOT lackluster, blows this thing out of the water, and is only $100 more. I orginally chose the TD-100 because I needed a 1u, half-rack sized preamp. I ended up having to get creative to fit the U5 into my rack instead, because I got fed up with the TD-100's tubes burning out and its uninspiring, but decent sound. It's not bad, but go for the Avalon.
