Sure it will look a lot better for it. No keen on these boxes that not only show every touch but its difficult to remove them too. Wood cheeks are great, ive few things with them

The intention is for it to mimic the Vida, only a little bigger. It's strange how I feel about it - there's something 'unbelievable' about it - I can't explain it. If I was in the UK is def bring it to some bake-offs for others to experience.

Update. After a long weekend of spinning vinyl of all genres I still cannot form a concrete opinion. Yes it has stripped away all veils, yes the detail is glorious - but I think I've lost a little musicality (colouration?) and there's a slight hardness in the mid that wasn't there before.
Now, as there isn't a single component in the signal path I have to assume that by lifting the veils a slight colouration has been highlighted somewhere else in the chain. To confuse the matter more im also having to use a 1m Cardas Neutral Reference from Vida to Truth as my Cardas Golden Presence is too short (will be up for sale shortly) at 0.5m. So the new cable might be adding to the sight hardness.
Of course it might also be highlighting a slight loading issues or even an SRA issue - it's that forensic.
It's bizarre that something sonically 'invisible' has changed the character of my system. scratch

Have you tried testing with digital, see if the same result happens?
Also what does this thing cost? I have searched all over for a price, no-one seems to mention it so I am guessing it is a lot.

There shouldn't be any hardness, though. Hardness in the sound is distortion that shouldn't be there.

It says $975 here

To be honest, those specs seem a bit odd. 60MHz bandwidth? But there's no mention of voltage gain, max voltage swing, THD etc.
As I mentioned earlier, I would love to see inside this thing.

True, but if it is more transparent it could be showing up a problem that was previously masked, as Adrian suggested.
