Skypunk got it right.  I also now use a Stellar phono pre and I was actually shocked at the improvement over my Lamm LP2.1 Deluxe, costing 4 times as much.  First, it has XLR and RCA, and the PSA designer cared less about measurements and more about listener involvement and SQ and it very much shows. Not sure how the Stellar will pair with the Ayre, but I do know that right now in the phone preamp market, it is the best value and best sounding phono preamp (at least to my ears in my system) under $10-$15K.   
This discussion brings up a question about balanced vs single-ended RCA outputs for mm/mc preamps in general. I understand how a balanced topology works and why, and my whole digital path is balanced, but not the phono stage (my Rega table doesn't have balanced outs). Why are there relatively few balanced options for vinyl as compared to other components?
bleeds - what are the advantages and at what output voltage range can it help most. Are these phono stages inherently more expensive? It never came up in any conversation when I was looking for my phono stage. I'm thinking it is high end - big $$ feature.
For $16k, the Sutherland looks very expensive for relatively few cheap parts.
