MM Accession compared to Rega MM Mk 5

I have had a good time with my loaner Mm Accession when comparing it to the Rega MM Mk5 which I had used previously! I'm new to vinyl and having a good time so far with my project debut Evo2 (factory fitted MM Exact cartridge). The Rega was ot a bad phono stage at all, but the Accession is simply better ( as one may expect) from a frequency response perspective, it feels more smooth. The frequency response seems less sharp! It sounds as though they rise and fall more smoothly and there is also a bit more depth to the sound stage.
