Lehman Black Cube or Grado PH-1 Preamp

Anyone have experience with these? I'm not in a position to try them, but in the $500 range, these two seem to fair well. Thanks for any feedback.

This is one fine phono pre for the bux. I am running one with an MM7 fitted with a Shelter 501 mk2. Just change the tubes for Ei, Sovtek or JJs.

Quest For Sound has them, he's an A'gon dealer. Mine is always amazing people, it's versatile, really very good and fairly cheap less than the Cube.
