I have been using one for a few months now. Simaudio LE amp and preamp, Basis 1400 table with a Dynavector 20xH cartridge. I have used it both balanced and single ended.
I find it offers better performance than the phono stage that was built into Musical Fidelity KW500 integrated and the BAT VK30 preamp with phono card. As mentioned above, the phono stage is absolutely silent and is very acurate tonally--it does not warm up vocals or add artificial space to music--it faithfully reproduces what sound is there. Soundstage has a good sense of depth and width.
