What line stage preamp to use with BEL MKIII amp?

Well I decided to keep my vinyl collection. After picking up an AR ES-1 turntable and listening to see what I would be losing by going with just the digital source, sanity prevailed. Now I'm on the look out for a Rega tonearm to replace the stock AR arm. Does anyone know who manufactured the AR stock arm?

Thanks for your suggestions. I bought my BEL 1001 MKII on Ebay from a person in NY state. I had a BEL 1001 MKI in 1985 and should have kept it. I have had many amps since that original MKI but IMHO nothing was as satisfying sonically and the MKIII is a great improvment over the MKI.
The Rowland Coherance One Series II mates really well with my BEL. The synergy between preamp and amp is a tricky marriage sometimes and buying without audition can be very dissapointing at times. I found this out with the Electrocompaniet AW60 FTT amp that I had before the BEL 1001 MKIII. Matched with the Rowland preamp everything sounded lifeless and dynamics were lacking. With the BEL it was a complete turnaround. I highly recommend Dick Brown's amps and if I get a chance will be biamping.

For the past 2 years I have used a Sonic Frontiers Line 2 SE with a pair of BEL 1001 Mk IV amps. I am extremely pleased with this combination. I previously used an Acurus RL-11 linestage with the BEL amps. The improvement in sound after replacing the Acurus with the SF Line 2 was huge - better bass and much more detail and resolution. Additionally, the HT bypass on the SF Line 2 allowed me to seamlessly integrate my 2 channel system with a 7.1 home theater system.

I have BEL MK111A Power Amps that I am using as dual monoblocks. I would be interested in how you feel the Rowland Coherence One Preamp matched with your BEL power amp. I had been using a Thor Preamp with Phono Stage, which I recently sold, that IMHO did not match particularly well with the rest of my system.

I am seeking ideas, opinions, or suggestions for a preamp with phono stage that might work well with my BEL amps and Audio Physic Avanti Speakers. Any opinions would be greatly appreciated.

ARC Ref 2 MkII or just released Hovland HP 200.
Get you BELs from Brooks Berdan Ltd., Monrovia Ca.

Try for The Klyne System 7.

Where you buy your BEL amps? New or Used?

Thanks.
