this! For reference I manage a studio, and am not just a home recordist.

I LOVE my solo 610 for home and use the 2-610 at the studio. If has a really clear sound that's great for acoustics. Less mids than say a neve type pre and that tube goodness. The tube adds a subtle effect (not as dramatic as a tube guitar amp vs. solid state) but you'll find that after listening a while you have less or no ear fatigue.
