The Parasound Z-phono is a real killer in the lower price level. Also there are some vintage preamps that are known for having an exceptional phono stage. One of them is the Adcom GFP 565. Quite a performer at it's price point but with no digital inputs if that's an issue.
Phono stage or pre Amp? which is most important.
Hi
I've just got back into vinyl after many years of digital music listening. Bought my myself a cheap turntable(Linn Basik, Akito arm, AT 95e Cartridge) and a project phonobox e phono stage. Just wondering how important the phono stage is compared to the amps it's going into. I know the project is only a £50 box so just wondering what next step up would be. My pre is a NAC 202 with NAPSC, Power is NAP 200, speakers CM6 s2. Is the Naim Stageline worth the money or is there a more budget friendly step up.
Cheers
