Best Phono Stage


Hi all,

I need some advise on a really good sounding phono stage to go with MC turntable set up in the $5k or so bracket. I am completely new to vinyl and realise there a lot here in terms of arm/cart matching MC,MM and I think moving iron but if you could point me in the direction of some good sounding units I can investigate compatibility etc. I don’t own a table or cart yet. I was looking at the Zesto Audio 1.2.

My goal is a liquid engaging sound with deep tight bass and air and separation on top.

Thanks in advance.

1) I need phono amp reccomendations

2) sorry, you need to justify your system with us

3) we'll have a pissing match while we wait for you to comply

4) welcome to Audiogon !

For the dosh you have you can afford a phono stage with an LCR Network.  Vida and Allnic will do nicely.

@edgewear Dutch fan 😁 that team was legendary imo , Gullet , Van Basten and the boys 👌, thanks for reply btw. I think the Goldnote PH10 is a solid contender and offers flexibility.

Thanks 

Sean
