Replacement for DeHavilland Ultraverve

I have a DeHavilland Ultraverve. It sounds great, no complaints.  I need a little more functionality-mono and phase buttons are what I'm after. I see a Herron 2A preamp on Audiogon. Any other suggestions would be appreciated. The rest of the system: Bryston 4B SST, Bryston 4B (2nd zone), Vandersteen 3A Sig, Luxman E1 phono, Amadeus with Dyna 20 LOMC, Marantz SA14S1 CD/SACD. Balanced connections are not a priority for my system.

Cool it worked out. I loved my dehaviland and replaced that with an Ayre K5xeMP which was better. They are both amazing preamps however.

Great to hear it worked out, I have been begging her to make a phono preamp.  Love my Ultraverve, great preamp.

Nitewulf, just curious does the Ayre have mono?

Checking the manual, nope it doesn't have mono or phase reversal, assuming you are talking about a button that will bridge the outputs?

Nitewulf, thats right. One day I'll try an Ayre in another system. Hanging onto the Ultraverve though
