I have not heard the Cambridge,but am currently using the PHO-8.It is extremely quiet and well balanced.Though not as flexible or dynamic,it is the best sounding inexpensive phono preamp I have had since selling my Lehman Black Cube SE.It is also easy to use(no DIP switches,no opening the case).
Any love for the Vincent PHO-8phono stage?
Retails at $399, typically $359. 2-chassis phono stage with MM/MC capability. It received a pretty favorable review in Abso!ute Sound this mo. Does anyone here have direct experience with it? Given that it has a 2-3 lb. power supply instead of a wall wart, I'm wondering if it offers an appreciable improvement over the fairly impressive (at $179) Cambridge 640A.
