My phono preamp uses 7581A 35w power tubes in the power supply. The big supply gives more depth, space and air to the soundstage.

or commit less money to the TT and spend more on the cartridge (e.g. get something like the U-turn Orbit Special at around $500 and spend $1k-1500 on a cartridge)No. The other way around.
