I have the PHD and can only say that it beat the pants off of a Sonic Frontiers that I once owned and as far as pre-amps with built in phono stages it also beats the Audible Illusions and Atmasphere pre amps that I have owned.How it compares to the Art Audio I can not say, but they build very good gear,my friend has the Clarissa power amp.
Art Audio Vinyl one vs Sutherland PhD
Looking to upgrade my phono stage. Currently using a Lehman Black cube ( the old model) with a Scout TT and ZYX R100 Yatra Cartridge (a fantastic Cartridge).
I've read good reviews of both the PhD and Vinyl one. I think they are about the same general price point, maybe under $2000 used. Any thoughts?
