Phono preamp with best mid bass


Let me explain my ideal sound and see if you guys have any suggestions. I realize speakers and and every other things contributes but looking for a phono that leans naturally toward the sound I’m looking for. 
 

I like a strong mid/upper bass that is highly articulated. Highs that are not overdone and natural. Sub bass is not as important for the music I listen to but what’s down there I prefer punchy rather than big. Natural mids that are well defined. Detailed but not to an extent that compromises robustness or gets too analytical. 
 

Been looking at the tube models. Rogue Ares looks intriguing as they mention some of the traits I am looking for in the reviews I’ve read. 
 

thanks

What turntable, what arm, what cartridge MM/MC? If you find yourself needing a rumble button in a well set up system, you have issues elsewhere and are only dodging that issue. Enjoy the music and good luck

@blisshifi , just went and looked at your system and that thing is gorgeous. If it sounds anything like it looks it has to be incredible. Enjoy the music.
