Recommendation on MC cartidge and Phono Preamp

Has anyone over that side of the pond heard the new Mk2 phono amps from Tom Evans Audio ?

The specs are truly world class, even on the modestly priced Mk2 Groove A, it's signal to noise ratio ( noise and distortion ) is an amazing -114 db @ 68 db of gain !

I am told that further up the range you go the lower the distortion and noise, 50% per model. I just read this recent review (below), from what Jason Kennedy (the editor) said about the way it performs it looks like it's the real deal and he gave it 'best buy' award.
as for Tom being untrustworty he has always helped and if you require an upgrade he will help with that too ,

Both the EAR 834P and Liberty B2B-1 are personally recommended as great high value highly musical choices for tubed or solid state designs.

And for an MC cartridge, the Lyra Delos is hard to beat. I have two, one for back up when the other requires retipping.

Ditto on the Herron. Really extraordinary.

There goes Peter / pbnaudio, again.  Recommending components that he manufacturers without a disclosure. 

Nice job, Peter.
