Hana SL or ML?

I run the Jolida Black Ice Audio F-159 tube phonostage into a Rotel Preamp using the by-pass circuit which sends the signal out to the Rotel Power amp without going through any other circuits aside from an attenuator (volume control) and both Rotels are solid state.  Works pretty nicely actually.....that Simaudio Moon 390 looks like a really nice unit also!  Looks to be solid state, right?  

I have the SL, have had it for about 4 months now and I echo ndevamp's comment about it needing some time to run in before it really shines.  I would say it sounded good right out of the box, but somewhere around 70-100 hours in is when it really opened up.  I've tried loading at the recommended 400ohms, 1K, 30K and 47K ohms and am settled in at 1K at the moment but some of this to me is also music-dependent.  I think you have made a good choice to go for the SL....I'd be very surprised if you aren't happy with it.  Which Simaudio phonostage do you have?  I recently purchased a Black Ice Audio (formerly Jolida) F-159, tube phonostage and the combination works really well.  

The Rotel has an option, "bypass," that will send the incoming signal only through the circuit that controls gain, or volume.  Otherwise the signal is not changed in any way.  So, I send the signal from my cartridge, to phonostage, to Rotel preamp, and out to the power amp essentially unfettered aside from the ability to control the volume of it sent to the power amp.
