Tube phono rec’s for AT Art9XI - Allnic, Modwright, Luxman…

I’m looking for a tube phono pre to pair with my AT Art9XI (0.5mV MC). Under $5K would be great, could stretch a bit higher if convinced.
 

It’s unlikely I can audition any of the following in my home, but have read great things about Allnic H-5500, Modwright 9.0x, Luxman eq-500. I think it’s unlikely many have had experience with all of these, but would appreciate any thoughts, and am open to other tube suggestions. I’m open to buying used. Can I go very wrong with any of these? Should I be looking at a lower (Chinook, Allnic 1202, lottery ticket on a Herron, Decware) or higher price range? I would guess future carts will be MC’s in the $1500+ range. 
 

Fwiw, TT is a SL-1210gae - currently into a Hegel h-390 (has balanced ins) via the to-be-replaced Parasound Zphono XRM. Love the Hegel, but long term main system (for which I want the new phono) will likely move to tube separates, maybe ARC. TIA for any thoughts!
