So what you are left with is what is possibly one of the most accurate phono stages you can buy, with a nice shiny amplifier included in the deal.
I was put off as well, but I just had to accept that this small chromed amplifier did it better than most I ever heard. Now in hindsight I love this gear to bits and can't see myself go back to a forrest of boxes and jungles of cabling and all the confusion of 'what did I change now'. Though I enjoyed my tube days greatly and I have a reminder of this when I look at my 400 small signal tubes collection
