Vincent PHO-8 phono stage. Anyone have experience with this phono stage ? 
Seems good for the money at $400.00 usd with external power supply.
I currently have a Vista ACLE unit with wall wart.

that's one i would be willing to take a chance on sound unheard.  i di the same with the little red bellari and was not a bit sorry.  later when fremer reviewed it, his assessment agreed with mine.  that neil gader review should be enough to go on, i think.

I'm a huge Vincent Audio fan - had a couple of their tube CD players and their SV-236MK integrated - that integrated was one of the best piece of gear I've ever owned.  My friend is currently enjoying it in his setup.  Seeing how I loved their other gear, I decided to give the PHO-8 a shot.  I picked up a slightly used version and it was fantastic!  It was able to hang with my PS Audio GCPH (a $1K phono stage) which I think says a lot, especially since the PS Audio GCPH is what I would consider to be a giant killer in terms of phono stages.

At it's price, it is tough to beat the PHO-8 in my book :D
