Phono Preamp-Nothing you like so Build your own?


If I'm going to have to spend more than a thousand bucks to get a phono preamp that I like, I'd just as soon build it myself. It will be less expensive and I'll be able to choose my own components to get the sound I like. Does anybody else feel that way, and if so, how did it work out for you?
Right now I'm leaning towards a solid state unit based on the OPA627 with PIO caps and a very regulated power supply.

Bottlehead kits. I have the Seduction, around $500 with some upgrades and sounds great. The Eros is supposed to be significantly better, for $750.
