hockey,
My guess is that not many are familiar with the onboard phono stage of the Sony; I would think that the Cambridge Audio would be better, but with an entry level TT setup, any difference might be small. Having the phono stage separate from what might be a noisy environment within the receiver could be beneficial as well. I would prefer the separate, as you have chosen.
