Hi, the phono stage is in my Anthem integrated. But I see your point. The answer is yes, I can change the phono stage by adding one between the Technics and the Anthem via Aux input.
I do like the simplicity of my system. When I've had more complex systems I always wondered about interconnects, synergy between components, etc.
At this point in my life, I would sacrifice a bit of performance to keep it simple. The Anthem's phono stage did pretty good in the reviews I read and sounds good in my system (my opinion) - but I'm sure improvement can be had for a price.
With that said, I am open to Phono preamp suggestions if they would considerably improve the sound.
Regards,
Gary
