Best Phono Preamp mm/mc under $3500.00 used

my favorites have been both solid state (i don’t want tubes in the phono stage) -- lehmann decade and ayre px5e - organic sounding dead quiet plenty plenty of gain and adjustability

Not made anymore but folks loved the Herron VTPH-2a.

Here is a used one.

Allnic 1202 also nice.

+1 for the Herron.

I currently run a Nagra BPS which I love. It reproduces instrument tone better than anything else I’ve heard.

In that price range a Manley Chinook SE would also be a must audition.

ARC PH7 or PH8 in that price range.  I had a PH7 and a friend of mine is getting ready to list one on Friday.  Very musical phono stage.

I didn't like the Parasound but love the PS Audio Stellar....Nice and musical with my Hana MC and ortofon Blue MM. Very flexible unit.....return it if you don't like it...you'll love it. $2500
