Looking for A Cost Effective Phono Amp- Any suggestions?"


I am looking for a cost effective phono amp. System include Rotes A14 Integrated Amp, Linn Basik Turntable with Akito tone arm, Rega Exacta 2 Cartridge. Very satisfied with turntable. not so much with cartridge. Not interested in breaking the bank. Prefer a device that can provide reasonably quality for MM and MC cartridge. Any suggestion?

+1, for the PS Audio GCPH. I liked being able to remotely MUTE the output, when cleaning & dropping the stylus. Also, just before my Safety Raiser did it’s thing, at the end of the record. If you can solder; HEXFREDs and better regulators(both inexpensive) are a snap to install, which make a dramatic difference in performance, when coupled with a nice PC and fuse(as your finances allow). There are other easy mods, as well. Won’t disappoint in stock trim, either. Lots of flexibility and performance, for the money. https://www.psaudio.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/GCPH-Phono-Preamplifier2-Owners-Manual-Rev-B-V2.pdf
