Solid State Phono Pre-amp Recommendations

I own a fully-loaded VPI Scoutmaster turntable with JMW-9 Signature tonearm and Dynavector DV-20X Low MC cartridge.

I'm looking to upgrade my current RSA F-117 Nighthawk MC/MM phono pre-amp and would like to stay with Solid State.

What would you recommend to use with my Dynavector DV-20X Low MC cartridge that some day may get upgraded to either a Dynavector XX-2 MKII or a Lyra Delos.

A friend of mine has recommended either the Sutherland Ph3D or the Sutherland 20/20.

I would also recommend the Parasound JC-3, I am running mine with a Delos and they work REALLY well together. Tons of gain and very quiet, good bass and lively fun sound.

My interest was also piqued by the Sutherland 20/20 but the JC-3 is too good to worry about buying anything else.

The ASR Basis Exclusive and Mini Basis seem to be well liked as well.

Also in the solid state category, the Einstein products seem to be well regarded.
