vs. Manley Shrimp

So far, I've auditioned the Rogue Metis and a Conrad-Johnson ET3. I liked the C-J, except for its design, and anyway, its about double the price. The Rogue Perseus and 99 Magnum are still in the running.

But, how about the Manley Jumbo Shrimp? It goes for over $3,000, which is about 50% more than the Rogues. But if it sounds better . . ..

BTW, is the Shrimp the same as the Jumbo Shrimp?

Meanwhile, I picked up a demo Rogue 66 preamp to tide me over, and fixed the NAD 114 I'm replacing.
