Phono stage rec for Rega P25 with ZYX R100-02H

Just picked up a used but perfect condition Rega P25 and added a ZYX R100-02H cartridge to it. My current phono stage is the Musical Fidelity V-LPS II, but I was thinking of upgrading with a budget of ideally less than $700-800. Any good matches for this turntable/cartridge combo?

I saw that, but I haven't heard much about the Pellar. Anyone with experience with this?

Why not try it out yourself? If none locally available for audition, then go thru Music Direct. Chris at Music Direct I believe is pretty familiar with the whole line. He was the one who put the Pulsus on my radar.

And here are the reviews listed for it on Avid's webpage:

I've decided to hold off and perhaps save up for a higher end phono stage, perhaps in the $1000-2000 range. Lots of competitors here in a tough field ...

In that price range, wait for a used Klyne to come along. They very rarely do, so if you see one, don't mess around, grab it. They rarely come up for sale, but disappear quickly when they do.
Assuming you will not find a Klyne, I'd recommend a Herron VTPH-1 MC.
