Phono preamp suggestions under $1000

I have 2 turntables, both with mm cartridges. I would like the flexibility of the preamp handling a mc cartridge if I decided to make the change. I listen to streaming music and vinyl albums. Music choice is often jazz, blues, and 70s rock (if that matters). Thank you

To be honest, unless you are willing to spend a lot more, using MCs for the sake of it is a waste of time.

@chakster What you are forgetting is the OP wants 2 phono inputs. That is why the GoldNote was recommended.

You can also add the PS10 power supply at a later date to improve bass weight and air/detail. 

Another less expensive option would be to buy 2 small phono amps like the Schiit Mani and use 2 inputs on a preamp to select between them.

Goldnote ph10 supports 2 tables. Mm and MC. Bit over budget at $1600 but worth a look.
