I bought one after auditioning several other phono stages:
1.) Acoustech PH-1
2.) Project Tube-box
3.) Krell KPE standard
4.) Project Phono-box
For my system, it was the best match. Very musical, yet detailed, but not overly so in either direction. Very quiet and dynamic too, with slamming bass response. The Acoustech and Krell were overly revealing, making too much of my vinyl sound poor. The Project stuff was fairly noisy, with reduced dynamics and bass and lack of detail.
For the PS Audio, be sure to use top quality cables, it makes a big difference. I have Audioquest Panthers on mine. Happy listening!
