Which Phono Pre to upgrade to?
I second the recommendation for the K&K. For about $1900.00 out the door you get a world class phono stage that would be very hard to match at the price.www.kandkaudio.comOz

custom made dustcover for Nottingham Spacedeck

Looking For Single Source Tube Preamp
Depending on the size of your room and how loud you listen, you might get away with 18 watts. But remember, those speakers have two 10" woofers per side. You might not get the control down below with an SET. But if you don't tend to rock out a lot... 
Looking For Single Source Tube Preamp
Kevin,Since your Sonatas are so efficient, why don't you just opt for a tube integrated with around 40 watts/channel or so? The Eastern Elecric E-520 and VTL IT-85 come to mind as contenders. I think you will realize the sound you are seeking bett...

If you can up your budget just a bit, Hollywood Sound currently has a Spacedeck/Ace-Spacearm on the Gon. Fabulous sounding rig that requires not much from you in the way of set up and maintenance. This one gets my vote.Oz

Good luck Clio. Kevin is a great guy and very smart. He is always willing to help. I have been to his house a few times and it was a pleasure meeting him in person. If you are considering his phono pre you are in for a real treat.Oz

I also have Kevins SE parallel feed phono preamp in the same chasis hard wired to the TVC with two extra inputs. It has an outboard PS. So basically, this is a full function preamp that just happens to have a state of the art phono stage....;-}}}Oz 
Goldpoint Passive Preamps
My preamp is a custom job by Kevin Carter of K&K Audio. It uses the Mark I version of the S&B transformers and Seiden switches for input selection and volume control. Previously I had the Mark II's, but the original is much better, in my o...

Clio09,I had a RL Preeminence 1B for a brief period. I didn't care for it even compared to my JJ preamp at the time, and my TVC lays both to waste. The RL has all the cleanness and transparency of a passive design, but also retains the negative as...
