How good is the phono stage of the VAC sig.II pre-


I just ordered this pre and am undecided whether to get the phono stage($4,000) included or go for a sep. phono- anyone using this pre with the phono stage built in??
thanks,gary

I've heard this phonostage((in pre)and was lucky to compare to the VTL,and Zanden seperate units...

IMO,the VAC was absolutely(and surprisingly)"easily" competitive to the other fine units.Others present felt the same way.

One small advantage of a "high quality" built in phonostage is the extra set of cables,and connections are eliminated.
Good luck
