Hagerman Cornet?

I'm looking for info on the Hagerman Cornet. I'm confused between the Cornet and the Cornet2. What's the difference? Are there any owners that can tell me how the kit compares to other phono stages? I understand you need to purchase the parts separately with the half kit which means that every unit will sound a little different, but if you can give me a general idea of how it compares to other stages you've heard, that would be great. If you want to outline the parts you used, that would be helpful too. I own an EAR 834P and I'm looking for something that will better it. Is the Cornet capable of doing that?
