How is the EAR 843P Deluxe vs. Modern phono preamps?


I have an opportunity to get a like-new one for a good price, but I'm wondering how this preamp is holding up against stuff in the $1000 price range of today?

This is a classic. Tube sound done old school and at its best. Let me know if don’t want it as I am possibly interested. An 868PL is an amp I would love to own too.
I think Invictus means that this is not a resolving design but more warm and musical - old school tube sound. More like mashed potatoes than tomato soup?
