New and under $1500, sticking with tubes also, take a look at the Decware phono preamp. You already have the Decware amp. If you like that then their preamp maybe the way to go. Rogue also makes a tube phono preamp within your price range. You obviously can spend a lot more and get something better you can also spend more and do worse. I have had equipment from both manufacturers and at the time liked the equipment and support they gave behind it.
What phono pre am I looking for?
It needs to be quiet, fast, dynamic and not cost an arm and a leg, $1500? Plays nice with a VPI/dynavector 20x2 low without a sut. I listen and enjoy most everything but, the British Invasion, Willie Nelson, Gillian Welch and jazz take the cake. I have tubes, an LTA pre, decware set amp and omega speakers.
The new channel islands peq-1 looks mighty fine and dusty uses the 20x2 as his personal cart, which can't be bad? New or used no problem.
