Thinking of trying the new Schiit Skoll to replace my Rega MCFono

@thegreenline - take a look at 110LP v2 Phono Preamplifier.

Priced at just a little more - it’s probably the last phonostage you will buy

Moon 110LP v2 review: a cultured and well made phono stage | What Hi-Fi? (whathifi.com)

Simaudio provide excellent phono stages to suit most budgets - but they do not skimp on quaity

I've heard the Rega MCfono and the Schiit (not Skol) Mani2 several times.  I used to own a Mani2.  I've never been impressed by either.  I built an RJM Audio Emerald MM/MC phono preamp and it destroyed both.  The only "budget" phonopreamp I've heard better it was a Simaudio Moon LP5.3.

This is a sideways move. Save up and get something like a Sutherland.
