VINTAGE PHONO STAGE - RIAA

Attached is a photo of two phono stages from early solid state integrated amplifiers.

Without revealing the brand and model (and the assumptions of 'house sound') do the schematics allude to a particular tonality?

Since I am not an electrical engineer it's difficult for me to decipher topology and its respective sonic merits. For those who have such knowledge, is one of the two a better design?

A shows both the left and right channels on a single board.
B has a separate board for each channel.

Assuming all components are new and in spec is there a preference based on the schematics displayed?

Looking forward to your answers.

Thanks!
