Phono Preamp Selection


I have no idea of which Phono Preamp I should purchase.  I read the reviews from Audio Science and the author provides testing criteria and results for Phono Preamps. I do not have a awesome system - rather it is just a nice system. I reviewed (Pro-ject Phono Box DC MM/MC  / Cambridge Audio Duo / IFI Zen / Schitt Skoll ). My turntable is a MoFi with a Hana MC Cartridge. 500.00 is my budget as I am just a listener of old vintage records.  My amp is a Denon and my speakers are bookshelf Triangle(s). Appreciate your time and responses.

@ghdprentice perhaps you mean Jolida? Now Black Ice. I have their tube DAC. Amazing for the money with good NOS tubes.

phono’s are out of budget for the OP

@z32kerber GN PH-10 and PSU-10 are great for the money but used are 3x the OP’s budget and even the PH-5 might be overkill - the Denon may become the weak link at that point.

OP. Lots of great suggestions but the Skoll is a bargain and you can try one for 2 weeks - not long but enough, I think. Low risk.
