Parting my rack out: Stewart, Yamaha, ART

Looking to go a different route. The only trades I'd consider are Berg HT112, LMIII or NV610's.

Stewart Audio 2.1 - this one has speakon connectors: $425 plus shipping.

Yamaha PB1 - recently dumped $200 into this one to get it all fixed up. working perfectly. $250 plus shipping

ART Tube Mic preamp - $150 Plus shipping.

If anyone wants the whole rack, $800 plus shipping and I'll throw in the case and power conditioner.

I already have a PB1, and I'm curious about the ART Tube.

How would you compare the two?

I love the PB1 (which begs the question why am I selling it) but the ART to my ear can be bit cleaner.

Thanks. To my ears, the PB1 is pretty clean; I expected the ART Tube to sound warmer!

Perhaps clean is the wrong word, fuller but with some greater clarity in the upper mids to my ear, but then the EQ section is a bit more complex on the ART.

Came to my senses...
