best phono stage under 10k

So who bought that Aurorasound VIDA from ebay this week for about $2135 ?? :))

it’s crazy that even for $4000 this knob with optional loading is NOT included and it looks like this.

Manufacturer website.

If you're using low impedance cartridge (under 5 Ohm) then current injection type of the phono stage can be the best ever. 

The recommendations above are all about traditional phono stages. 

Search for CURRENT INJECTION instead, they are unique and most natural sounding with low impedance MC cartridges.

Mine is 47 Labs Phoncube and my LOMC never sounded so good with many traditional phono stages i have in my arsenal.  

American gear for Americans ? Why always Herron ? 
Claiming that Herron is the best under $10k without recall its contenders is nonsense, it would be fair to mention some other phono stages compared to Herron by its user.
