I never touched Atoll, but their build seems more or less the same than the Duo.
I would go for the Duo if you have the money.
You might be interested in MC cartridges later.
It measures good.
It has a headphone output with attenuation, if that is important to you.
Looks neat enough.

Hey @TheBatsEar , is the RCA output fixed or variable via the volume control?

 

[TheBatsEar]

The volume control only applies to the headphone output.
If you plug something into headphone, the device clicks and the RCA output is muted.

Confirmed with the b sides first song from Polyrythmics album "Man from the future":
