Opinions on Audio Matiere amps


Hi, folks

I just aquired a used 30 WPC integrated amplifier made
by the French company 'Audio Matiere' (I had no idea about this company). I have a pair of Spendor FL8 speakers.
So far, I am very pleased with the sound! of this amp.
This amp does not have a phono stage though and I am not so happy about it. What phono stage I could by for this amp?
What connections are used between a phono stage and an integrated amp? What is your experience with Audio Matiere gear? Do you think my FL8s are a good much for this amp?
Thanks in advance.

previously owned a Audio Matiere Paraphase it was better than a C.A.T. preamp or Jadis JPL preamp. Had a extremely layered and airy soundstage and presence doesn't get any better. Build quality is very good and unique.
