How Do I Choose A Phono Preamp


I have a Technics 1200G turntable/ Hana ML, Audioquest Cinnamon interconnects and a McIntosh MA 12000 feeding Wilson Audio Sabrina X.

I figure that an integrated phono stage is pretty hard to execute and this would be better handled by an external phono preamp and best with a well isolated power supply.

How do I shop for a phono preamp?  I'm ok new, or used.  Any suggestions as to what specific amps to look at?

I had the Hana ML and now the Umami Red. I upgraded from an SPL Phonos to the Modwright PH9.0X and it is stunningly good as is but add some NOS tubes for a real treat.
