Tube Phono Stage Used $600-$1000

My cartridge is Van Den Hul Colibri XCP. It's output is 1 mv and optional input resistance is 1K to 47K. My preamp's maximum input is 300 mv. I want to buy a used tube phono preamp bw $600 and $1000.
My amp is Musical Fidelity Nuvisto M3, and my speaker is B&W Nautilas 803, and I used Cardas Golden Cross IC & speaker cable.
I majorly listen to classical music.
Any suggestion is wellcome very much.

If space is a problem try the EAR.

HELLO HZHU, WHAT PREAMP ARE YOU USING?

EAR 834P would be an excellent choice. I've owned the Sonic Frontiers mentioned above and much prefer the EAR. I've used it with a Van den Hul Grasshopper (.6mV) and currently use a Grado Reference (1mV) on my Well Tempered Reference. These are really great phono stages.

I am dying to have enough money to check out a Manley Steelhead.
I have an EAR 834, and an EAR 834P, that I use with various Rega tables and cartridges. I have been very happy with them both.
Great phono preamps, especially if you can find a good used one.
Hope that helps.
