VPI Aries/JMW 10/Lyra Delos -- Phono preamp rec?

Hi - I'm new to this forum and apologize if this question has been asked before, but any recommendations for a phono pre-amp to go well with a VPI Aries with the JMW10 tonearm and a Lyra Delos cartridge? I'd like to replace my Musical Fidelity V-LPS II. Budget ideally under $1500 but willing to consider something a little more expensive of significantly worth it. Thanks!

Hello Jawks,

Please do, as you know if you have read some of my postings here on Audiogon I'm very proud of the B2B-1.

Good Listening

Call Keith Herron at Herron Audio ( www.herronaudio.com ) and see if he has any used VTPH-1 phono stages available. They are a great match for Lyra carts.

IMO, a used VTPH-1 would be the absolute best bang for the buck at your price point.

Jawks: I wrote a review of Peter's phono stage on Audiogon (and I own one for a solid state system).

Check out the BMC mcci. You can read the glowing reviews on stereophile . I own one I bought a demo unit in Germany and this is one of the best phonostages out there.
