If you can wait a month or two - perhaps keep an eye on the PS Audio Stellar Series. They are getting ready to roll-out a new Phono stage, and it sounds like they have really done their homework. (Check out the U-Toob videos on the subject)
Recommendations for a Phono Preamp
Can anyone recommend a suitable phono preamp for the following set up:
Miyajima Zero mono, output 0.4mV
Miyajima ETR-Mono SUT which I set at Input coil 120 Ohm inpedence, Output coil 3000Ohn Impedence, for a gain of 28.7db
Pass XP20 Line Stage Preamp.
I would appreciate suggestions for phono preamp between the Miyajima SUT and the Pass preamp (with maybe ~ 42dB plus gain?). It's primary characteristic should be wide soundstage, holgraphic (yes! if you doubt that with mono you have never heard the Zero), I like lots of air and space between the performers in the sounddtage.
Any suggestions?
