Phono Preamp suggestions between either Gold Note PH-10 or Whest TWO.2

I'm starting to look at Phono Preamps to pair up with a Hana MC low output SL cartridge and am looking to upgrade from my current Clearaudio Smart Phono V2. I am not unhappy with the performance of the Clearaudio phono pre but would like to compare it to a few other preamps and am also getting the bug to upgrade.
I'm initially looking for anyone that has had experience with either one of the Preamps in my title line but am also open to suggestions on other Phono Preamps under $2500.

@rsf507  I haven’t purchased the phono stage just yet but when the time comes I am leaning towards the Gold Note PH-10.

I had an opportunity to pick up a Simaudio Moon CD transport with their on board DAC and had a change in focus.

The phono stage is on deck.

Sorry I couldn’t help.

Did you know Gold Note has increased prices on just about everything including PH-10

Brand new $1499.00 if you search around 2 minutes max . I own the gold note with a Audio Technica Art 9 xSH. The gold note sounds great nice being able to change loading while playing if you have a good enough vinyl system you won't be disappointed
