Small factor phono stage

I am putting together a small system for my second office. Space is a bit of an issue. Plan to listen to mainly vinyl ( no streaming ).

Looking for a small phono stage; one box ( ie no external power supply ), tube based preferably. Price range 2-3 K.

Have an old Triode amplifier - to start with- but will likely upgrade down the road.

Thanks

Unless you need a tube or tube hybrid I would go with Hegel V10. I have this and it does a great job. Even though it is small it has a linear power supply. The transformer is in the “wall wart” if you are ok with that you are good. There is a battery powered (rechargeable) phono stage that is under $1k. They are out of Skokie. IL. I bought my Hegel V10 at holmaudio.com in Woodridge, IL.
