Sutherland 20/20 v Manley Chinook

My current set-up is a VPI Classic 1 turntable with a Lyra Delos cartridge, and my phono stage is a Dynavector P75. I'd like to upgrade my phono stage - my budget is $2000. I've read great things about both the Sutherland 20/20 and the Manley Chinook.

Any thoughts on those two? Any others I should consider in my price range?

Thanks.

Sutherland has been around for neons, but IMO, you don't hear much about them. I wonder if anyone would chime in , and describe the tonal balance.
Perhaps the OP may be interested as well. I believe the Manley is a hybrid, if I am not mistakenÂ…?

I've had the K&K, Chinook, and the Zesto. I thought the Allnic H1201 was widely better than the K&K and Chinook. I also preferred it to the Zesto.

I would pick almost any of those over the Sutherland, which is lacking in dynamics and attack.
