What separate tube phono stage do you use ?

Do a search of NVO (New Valve Order) a small company from Cyprus competes with the big boys.

Greek part of Cyprus or Turkish ?

Eastern Electric Minimax Phono Stage is worth checking out. 

I use this Quicksilver. You can find it used for under 1 grand!

@br3098 Any chance of a photo(s) of the interior of your PAB Croft. I spoke to Pear Audio about these units and apart from a wood facia, the weren't very forthcoming on internal ungrades. Seem they are asking a lot more than Croft does. Curious to see what they do. I have the tube regulated version. Thanks.
