Default Momentum Phonostage

The D'agostino Momentum phonostage has really piqued my interest lately, it looks amazing and matches the Momentum series perfectly. Does anyone out there have any experience with this piece or has heard it? Compared to some of Dan's other offerings, there's not a whole lot of press available about it. Enjoythemusic.com has a review of it here but I'm not very familiar with their writers or site:

I'm happy with the sound of my ARC Reference phono 2SE but am curious what there would be to gain (if anything) with the solid state Momentum piece. The ARC phono stage has that great liquid tubelike sound, however, it can get just a touch noisy at higher volumes since I have to use the high gain setting. Normally this doesn't affect listening at my usual low volume listening, but if I ever do get the urge to crank it up a bit, you can hear some enhanced tube rush/noise from the phonostage. I'm also getting up there in tube hours so I'll have to replace those fairly soon as well, so something to think about also. Maybe I could run across a show demo special at RMAF perhaps.....hmmm

It's such a good looking piece of gear as well.
