Fred is a great guy and his designs are stellar. I remember his micpreamp sounded especially nice at Fletcher's Boston Pre Party. Fred is wonderful to work with too. He's done some digital boards designs for us in the past and they always were very well engineered and very analog/natural sounding. Actually we're doing another run of his 24/96 DAC boards in our HIFI WAVE DAC/Preamp right now.
The only bad thing about Fred is there is
only one of him! 
When's the next scuba trip?
