A year ago I purchased a Simaudio i5.3 Integrated amplifier and the lp5.3 phono pre-amp. Both products are 1st rate components and I received a very competitive price from Lary at Swan HiFi in Tampa, Florida. Even more important and significant than the price point was the level of service provided by Lary the owner of the shop. Never at any time was there a feeling of pressure to make a purchase, on the contrary there was a presentation of a genuine concern that the products presented would meet the specific needs expressed by the potential customer. A wonderful experience! Go and listen to the Swan M1 Monitor Speaker-you can't touch it for two times the price.
