Stand out phono stages


This topic has been started before by others and myself as well, maybe too many times, but it is worth revisiting since the source is so very important!
So far I have had the pleasure to enjoy two worthy phono stages: the EAR 834p and the JLTI.
I have to admit they are spectacular. Obviously the record and all the equipment downstream play a role in the sound heard. In some cases I prefer the JLTI and in other cases the EAR. But neither out do the other dramatically.
What phono preamps outshine others by a big margin, those that can be considered the last phono preamp ever needed.

No-regrets,

Sorry for the slow response.

What can I add? It's the best I've ever heard and it ain't even that close for second. One of the best things about ordering from Jeffrey and Dave is the ability to customize. The SUTs are built-in and Dave's SUTs are killer; wound to your cartridge's spec. Mine was delivered almost a year ago, so you'd have to contact Jeffrey about current pricing.
