Stand out phono stages

So, I'll add my thoughts to the discussion. I recently purchased the Manley Labs Chinook phono stage from Upscale Audio. All I can say is "great job". They have a solid winner with this model. It ran perfect out of the box - even with the stock Electro Harmonix Russian tubes. I was definitely impressed. I've also had the opportunity to speak with Manley Labs tech support regarding how to configure the unit to support the Dynavector 10X5 MC cartridge. The tech support team responded within one hour - incredible customer support! I can't say enough about this company or this product. Great job guys!

ESE Lab Nibiru v3.0. I owned the battery powered version (v2.5) for seven years and sent it for the upgrade (v3.0) about two months ago. The upgraded unit has circuit changes and is now mains powered using a "virtual" battery.

I was very happy with the v2.5 sound but frankly the v3.0 is astonishing. To my ears there is a large step up in resolution (low level detail), better dynamics and better tonality. This gives great insight into the music. I hear how the guitar (John Fahey!) is being played - I can almost feel the tension in the guitar strings. The Nibiru uncovers intense detail, and the separation of musical strands is stunning, but still retains the musical whole - it has great focus.

Is there any phono stage produced anywhere that hasn't been named in this thread?
Good luck to the poor sod who reads this with the idea of creating a shortlist.

I don't see the andros zesto on here in answer to Tobes last post.

Any one done any comparison of this with other high end phono stages?

Out of interest, has anyone auditioned the Vitus Audio MP-P201 Phono Stage. Incredibly expensive but would be interested in hearing from anyone who has listened to it.
