My main system: Clearaudio Champion Magnum TT, SME V 9" arm, Lyra Etna Lamda cart, EAR 834P phono stage, Leben CS600X integrated amp, Devore Gibbon 9 speakers, Transparent interconnects & cabling throughout system.

I just picked up the Primaluna EVO 100 tube phono stage for a second setup (I think). It may end up replacing the EAR 834P in my main system, but since I haven't done any critical listening yet, I'm just initially curious. Would you choose one over the other, or, are they basically same caliber phono stages?
