Best Pre with a built-n phono section?


I’m wondering if there is a preamp out there that has a great built in phono section. Due to space limitations, I’d rather not go the separate pre / phono pre route. Associated equipment: Spectron Musician IIISE MK II amp, Magnepan 3.6 speakers, Electrocompaniet CD Player, Nottingham Ace TT with a Benz Glider H2 cartridge (2.5 mV output.) I would probably need to go SS pre; I could use a tubed pre if the heat out put was minimal. Thanks in advance for your suggestions!

i have owned the copland 301 for years. it is a tubed unit with a fantastic phono stage that is a true giant killer. i just recently replaced it with separated and am not decided yet on whether i will sell it or not. i may just keep it for the phono stage alone because it is so good.
your cartridge output would be fine. i was using a benz H20 with it.
