Which phono stage for Garrard 401 with Shure V15 lll cartridge


Hi everyone

 

i am getting back into vinyl and bought a Garrard 401 / Shure V15 lll. I need to decide on a suitable phono stage. I have an opportunity to buy an AR PH3SE, a Pro-ject Phono Box RS or something up to a maximum budget of $1500. What would you recommend? Looking forward to your responses. Thanks!

 

the rest of my system consists of:

Threshold Stasis 3

Audio Research LS2

ProAc Studio 250s

Digital: PS Audio Perfectwave dac + transport

PS Audio power plant for everything

Marite, I'm enjoying using a Garrard 401 with DIY plinth, Dynavector 501 arm, and Herron VTSP-2 phono stage.

Cartridges are Audio Technica AT-ART 9,  Dynavector XX2MKII (Soundsmith Retip), Acutex M320 III LPM, and several others as the mood strikes.

This combination soothes my fancy, it will gladly remain my only vinyl playback system as long as I last on this planet 

Best regards,

Dan
