Does anyone here have experience with this particular device?

It's a nice little preamp, though it doesn't have EQ. There is a version with USB that makes it a mic/instrument computer interface: http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/TubeMPpsUSB

That's real nice but it might be a bit of overkill for me, I've got an eq and no plans to go directly into a computer. I'm going to think about it for a bit before I pull the trigger on anything.... Who knows what I'll want to have down the road.
