What separate tube phono stage do you use ?


Allnic, Manley and Herron are quite common. Interested in what else is out there that is not mentioned often. Good enough performance at the level of entry level Allnic and above. Lamm is great, I know.

Maybe if we could compare easily few companies would survive for long. While sometimes it is a matter of match and preferences, at other times it is clearly better/worse.
The same in other areas - lawyers, doctors, programmers and many others. 
Yeah, Aesthetix has been proven to be good to many people for quite some time, though some of those people eventually moved higher, I heard. Allnic ranks very high these days, from the entry model and all the way up. I would want to avoid it but I can't rule out that I would have to try a few one by one by buying and selling. New Allnic 1202, their least expensive model, should be even better than before because they added tube power supply.
I too have owned a Rhea since 07.  It replaced an ARC PH 3.  The only other phono stage under consideration was the Manley Steelhead as I have the Neo Classic monoblocks.  When I first purchased the Rhea it was noisey so Aesthetix re-tubed it for me at no charge and it has worked fine since then all though one will never get a solid state noise floor.  I have a dedicated room so enjoy a wonderful soundstage and imaging presented by Maggies and generated by a loaded LP-12/Shelter 90X combo.  I am not one to change just because so until I experience a considerable sonic difference in something I'm happy as is
In my own system TRON Seven Reference - beautiful boutique English tube phono - distributed by Jeff Catalano at Highwater Sound in NYC. If you want a giant killer phono tube stage, then the entry level TRON Convergence is stunning at the price - HWS system incl TRON Convergence rated amongst Best Sound of Show at RMAF by many.
I don't believe in "giant killers ", but there are components of outstanding value.
When you select a phono stage, all you have to consider are:
tubes vs ss
balanced vs se
available gain
active RIAA vs passive
RC vs LCR vs LR RIAA correction 
Number of inputs, switchable?
On board cartridge loading or not

 And there’s more. So it is no wonder that there are so many viable products out there in the market. And it is no wonder that there is little to no agreement on which one is the best. However, if you can afford to tie up some dollars while you audition for yourself, it is to a limited degree possible to compare phono stages in one’s own system. You can buy used and resell what you don’t like.
