Conrad Johnson PV-10 vs. PV-11

Which one of these preamps is considered "better" for 2 channel use. I see they are similarily priced on the used market. Thanks.

However, each to his own. I had my PV-11 modified which made it the best of all of them. Look under my virtual system review of Zu Speakers, Almarro 318B Tube Amp, and Linn Basik Turntable for system setup hints.
