MBL 6010D built in phono help

Hello to all..

Has anyone heard the 6010d phono? Please share you thoughts. Also, anyone compare the 6010d phono to other phono ss or tube or stand alone phono? I'm interest getting the 6010d pre but not sure if the built in phono is any good. Please share your experience and thoughts. Thanks in advance.

The Stereophile review indicates the phono section is resonable.
Others are better, (Naturally at a higher price as separates.)

Thanks Elizabeth..have you listen to the 6010d phono yourself? You said other are better, which one?Are you recommend going separate instead? I'm looking for warmth, transparent, lushness, natural sound. My music taste are female vocal, easy listening, jazz, acoustic.

Yes I own it. It's more than acceptable. I auditioned ARC ref2. But didn't hear enough of a difference to make a purchase. More bloody midrange for sure. It has limited cartridge matching ability IMHO. But if u pay attention to that it's all good:)
