Supratek vs. Thor?


Hi guys,
I own and love a Supratek Syrah. Howver I've notice quite a few Thor TA100 preamps on here lately at astonishing prices for an $8K preamp. So just wondering has anyone compared the two? I know the Thor has gotten some raves in the press and the Supratek has gotten some raves here, and rightly so. Is the Thor legit, or is it another case of press hype. And would it be a step down or sideways versus up to go from a Syrah to a Thor? The rest of the system, Tube Tech CD64 player, Cary 300B monos, Alon Lotus speakers. Thanks in advance.And have a happy Thanksgiving!

Being a Thor owner ( T1000 and TPA30 ) my guess is since there recently have been some new changes to the Thor peices
the mk1 peices or mk1 pieces upgrade to mk11 status are usually priced very reasonable.I have an older mk1 and still love the peice but must admit some of the prices on less than 2 year old stuff is hard to pass up. As far as the quality/sound value. Great! As far as the look? You'll have to decide for yourself. I find the new stuff drop dead gorgeuos myself...
