Do they make a quiet great sounding phono pre amp??

I can only really recommend ones that I have used, but will suggest one that I haven't too.  At present I am using a Zesto Andros and it is really quiet. Really nice sound and I love that the settings can all be controlled without having to open up the box. The Zesto is more than what you want to spend though, otherwise it would be a great option.  Before the Zesto I was using a Sutherland Insight (solid state).  It was also very quiet. Not as musical as the Zesto, but really good and it's priced at around $1500.  The next step up would be a Sutherland 20/20. I think those are around $2300.  I have not listened to one, but that is probably the sweet spot in the Sutherland line. I would try one of them from a reputable dealer that has a generous return policy.

I have had several. The best was the Naim Superline but it was too expensive. So was the ASR. Their smaller one is also supposed to be good. I also had the Blue Circle cheaper modal. All of these were quiet with good quality. The Musical Fidelity is also good, heavy as a boat anchor. I have had health problems and had to downsize so I am getting a Jasmine. A friend has one and he likes it and he makes his own tube preamps.

Hi Matt. 
I waited and waited, and, searched and searched - then I got a Vendetta SCP2a. Old elctrolytic caps damaged my Lavardin IT, but once replaced, and with modern IC's my phono stage search has come to an end. The only phono stage I have come across that measures quieter than the original is the top of the range Moon Audio - not sure if it would with the modern IC's I got put into the phono stage.
If you want to buy new, then GO WHEST.
Can I just say one thing though, and I do think another poster has said much the same. If you want 'dead' silent then it has to be digital. You clearly like tubes, and noise goes with the territory, unless you are buying very expesive gear. By the same token, solid state that is more 'tubey' in sound is likely to be equally costly, that said, I recall testing a phono stage made by Sugden in the UK, I did a quick review of it, and it may just do the trick for you - sweet sounding - very quiet.

Atma-Sphere new MP-1 MK3.3 with a built in Phono is said to be not only the one of the most musical but also the quietest.

John Wolff from Classic Audio uses them on a 101db Horn Speakers with no hiss or noise. I guess you can classify them as one of the quietest Phono-Pre-amp around.
