I know you alreay made your decision, but you might also look at the Gram Amp 2 SE from Graham Slee. It's only $220 from www.lpgear.com and was recently written about in TAS.
Suggestions For Phono Preamp....
It looks like I am going to finally make a serious effort
to transfer my 200+ records to CD. I just got a very good
deal on a Music Hall MMF-5 turntable; and now I'm looking
to get a phono preamp that will match up decently with
my turntable.
Please note that I own a media duplication company - so
I will be transferring the audio to a professional CD
recorder - not a consumer unit. And since I don't need a
preamp for other sources; a preamp that is only used for
turntables would be preferred.
One last item - would like to keep the cost under $1K
if possible. Any and all suggestions will be appreciated.
