In your budget the Ifi Iphono2 is very flexible and sound quality punches way above its price point. I used one for a short time before i got the Gold Note PH10. its surprisingly good google it. Mike Fremer analoge plannet gave it a very good review. does MM, MC and has multiple settings for almost any cart. even has different curves for older records.
Need help finding a new phono stage.
I just purchased the Marantz tt-15s1.
It has a dynavector 10x5 installed on it.
I have a Cambridge audio cp1, and it sounds great. Which I'm not fully understanding because I thought that stage was for mm only? Can someone help explain this?
My amp is set 3/4 the way up for the volume level I like.. but even at full tilt it doesnt sound distorted or anything!
I guess my main question, and my next step is what is a good phono stage to upgrade to??
For now though I am happy.
Thanks in advance.

I had Jasmine LP2.O for a year. Read the reviews, but easily below $600 if you can find it. I really enjoyed the flexibility and musicality of thos.phono pre-amp. Phillip Holmes tweaks the $639 Jasmine LP2.0 SE phono preamp - Dagogo

I use a Clearaudio Nano V2 with my Rega P3 and Dynavector 10x5. 46dB of gain and it sounds great. $450.00 https://clearaudio.de/en/products/electronics-nano_phono_v2.php |
