Reverend, in that structure you could easily swing either way, monk-like, or the whips-and-chains thing. The right place to be listening to "Carmina Burana". Just don't make the mistake of referring to the wife as "wench"!
Definitely too church-like, and with pokey little windows.

Looks like the new(ish) Fosgate (of Fozgometer fame) phono stage. It does look like a honey; I'd love to get my hands on one for review!

Still have no idea what it is beside a phono preamp. Do we have to go on a match this picture hunt or will you enlighten us, Bernard?

It's just a phono preamp; that's its sole function. You connect your turntable (cartridge) to its input and you connect its output to a line input on your line stage preamp. It does not make toast or pour port.

I think they're asking about manufacturer and model number...

Im sorry, what kind of phono pre? 
But I suppose the fact no one has a clue basically answers the question if anyone has heard it.

Come on guys........In the title I said it was the Fosgate Signature Phono Preamp. Guess no one reads titles.
It's $2,500, and it recently got a good review in TAS, in their analog(ue) issue. It's distributed by Musical Surroundings in California.

i missed the title
I could barely make out "signature" and saw you had said "phono preamp"... so exactly one google search later was able to locate the culprit. Funny how large bold font can self-cloak like that... or did you use invisible e-ink

Bernard's title text notwithstanding, I did reply saying that it was the Fosgate phono stage!

Since they are in bold and they smack you between the eyes, I guess not. I'll know better the next time.
BTW I was looking at an online review of it (the Fosgate Signature Phono Preamp), and the guy says that you need a cartridge generating at least 0.6mV for it to work acceptably; that leaves out the Koetsus with their 0.5mV outputs (the Rosewood, at least). TAS made no mention of this.
