Coincident Linestage vs CJ CT5 or Allnic L-3000


I currently own a Conrad Johnson CT5 but would like to upgrade and move to a preamp with XLR in/out. I have tested the Allnic L-3000 which I find very intersting, and I am also interested in the Coincident Statement linestage. Has anybody compared the Coincident to the CT5 or the Allnic?

Jordan/Germanboxers,
Need clarification...did you replace your Concert Fidelity CF-080LSX2 Preamp with the Coincident Audio Statement Linestage? If so, could you please let me know the difference in sound, and why you preferred one over the other?

Thanks in advance.
Jordan,
Thanks for the update on these great linestages. I have heard them both in different systems several times at the RMAF; and just like Charles, I knew I could live with either. However, I have always wondered if the less costly CSL could give the CF a run for the money, and I'm glad to hear that it does. This would save me some money.

Cheers.
Charles,
I am sure Isreal is detailed, but it won't hurt for someone to raise this spec issue with him to ensure there was no oversight on his part when he did the order
