inexpensive phono pre amp

Buying a Project Project Debut Carbon Evolution turntable for my daughter to go with a line stage integrated amplifier and need an inexpensive expensive phono pre amp to match the Sumiko Rainier cartridge. Considering the Schitt Mani, Parasound Z, Rega Phono Mini A2D mk 2, Cambridge Audio Alva, NAD PP 2e, IFI Zen and Project Phono Box S2. Thoughts?

Get the Cambridge Duo. Best measuring phono over at ASR.

If not that, get the schiit mani.

Duo for $180 refurbished but still thinking about the ifi zen. Wish I could compare these against my Herron

Just to note that I bought my daughter an ifi Zen. Seems to be working well for her.
