Why not consider the C712 or C15 preamp to compliment your 2255? And if you need a Mac tuner, these are readily available, and quite reasonably priced. I doubt the C28 or MX110 will satisfy you by today's standards of sound quality.
MX110 vs. C-28?
I'm thinking about a preamp to pair with an MC2255. I have an old MA6100 that needs significant work, and am considering just switching up for a C-28 or a MX110.
I've been using the MA6100 as a preamp, but one of the phono channels has failed, and the whole unit is starting to deteriorate. It was not stored well by the person I bought it from.
I'm conscious that the MX110 has a tuner and the c28 does not - aside from those points, are there any to consider? The price differential between the two isn't a big deal.
For completeness (though not an "amps preamps" question) I'm also considering trading my aging speakers - JBL L100 Centuries - for something smaller and more modern, (e.g., Kef LS50's). The system is in quite a small room in my old, old house.
