Is there any benefit to a tubed phono stage?


I am using a hybrid integrated that has a tubed input stage. Is there any benefit to a tubed phono stage over non-tubed?

David12, if you like the K&K phono you should check out Kevin and Dave's RAKK DAC. Does for CDs what the K&K phono does for vinyl. Dave's line stage is pretty awesome too.
The K&K phono is designed to use the Russian 6N1P tube. NOS versions of this tube are still available for $5 a pop. For $100 you could have a lifetime supply! Tube rolling and tube cost are not an issue with this phono pre.
