"Just for hypothetical analysis lets say you buy a $1500 preamp and a $1500 phono preamp. Would you not under most but not all circumstances be better off with an added $500 phono module in preamp?"
I know what you are asking, but the simple answer is, your question can't be answered with any type of accuracy. There's just way too many variables. The only advice I can give you is that you need to get the info you need to make the choice yourself. And by info, I mean actual listening. If you do this going only by opinions and reviews, success will probably be accidental.
