Phono Amp for new Rega Planar 10 with Apheta 3

Hello all,
I just started using my new Planar 10 with the Aphelion cart. 
I have about 25-30 hrs. on it and LOVE it. It replaced a "supermodded" P-9 with ET air bearing arm that is currently 'kaput' due to clear audio cart broken and sitting on a shelf at Soundsmith (maybe someday he will fix it ???)   
Anyway I am using a Benz Lukaschek PP1 latest version with an expensive hot rodded power supply. So far so good, sounds great. 
If I make any change I think I would opt for the Rega Aura which should match up real well with the Aphelion. 
Does anyone have opinion on the Accuphase phono stand alone phono stages?? my dealer is offering a good deal on a C-27.. should offer a little more gain than the Lukaschek. 

Also anyone with the new Planar 10 have an opinion replacing the felt mat??
I am perplexed with all the choices. I had good (I think) experience with the old ringmat but...

Don't own the Planar10, however I believe MyMat would work great for you.

Check out Fern & Roby phono stage.  About $2k, very flexible.

So I am back to the game - P10 with Apheta 3 is arriving Tuesday and I need the phono that will fully show the deck and cart potential. Perhaps Aura or Luxman EQ500? What about Sutherland Duo or Little Loco?
