Lounge LCR III vs. Lehmann Audio Black Cube SE II

Anyone have experience with either phono amp? The price points are pretty far apart, but both are on my short list.

Ok, now I'm thinking either the Black Cube SE II or the Musical Surroundings Nova II. Very close in price, both well regarded. Thoughts from anyone who's heard both?
