Pre-amp with great phonostage (tube)

Need a great Pre (Tube) to record my audiophile LPs to a CD burner. Don't panic. It's just so I can take some of my clasics on the road. I will be using a Planar-25/Grado Reference turntable setup. Because of price I am conserding vintage units but would like all input. PS. Input on Solid State welcome too.

Rogue Audio 66 or if you want to get one of the best, The 99 is the ticket! Read the great review of the 66 in the Oct.issue of Stereophile.These preamps have awesome bass,smooth as tubes get and beat out much costlier pramps in layering and depth.Dont buy till you audition a 66 or 99! UU
