I've heard one several times for a couple of hours each time at GT Audio in the UK. I have a MC1B myself (on a Schroeder Model 2 and Platine Verdier). Certainly in the set up at GT Audio, the Finish sounded very musical - natural timbre, deep soundstage, good dynamics and tracks well. At GT Audio, it was on a Schroeder Reference, DPS TT, with Avantgarde Trio horns. The amps were GT Audio's own TRON tube brand. Graham Tricker has been making high end tube amps for years. His circuit are very quiet ie with his Meteor tube preamp, 300Bs and Trios - silence when the volume is turned to full on phono! By the way they sound great too - so much so that I will be buying one of his Meteor preamps.
