Phono Stage in inputs for 2 tonearms


In the market for a phono pre with inputs for 2 tonearms.  I know about the Luxman EQ-500, the Esoteric E-02 and the Elac Alchemy.  Any of you guys know of some other candidates?  Thanks

I don't know any,

one option is to use a SUT with multiple inputs, alternate MC gain/impedance, and PASS for MM.

Then go to a MM Phono stage or MM Input

My SUT, Fidelity Research FRT-4 has 3 inputs and PASS, 4 xfactors/loads. Entre 100 also has 3 inputs and PASS, 3 xfactors/loads.

more advanced units have independent adjustments for gain and impedance.

Musical Fidelity M6X Vinyl. MM or MC. 
 

3 inputs 

 

Balanced or single ended outputs

 

Discrete not opamp.

I will chime in once again whenever this question is asked….

Aesthetix Rhea Signature

All tube based

Dual mono design

Not 2 but 3 inputs

Balanced and SE outputs

Memorized gain and loading for each of the three inputs

Fully remote control switching of inputs, gain and loading 

Fantastic service from their folks in California 

End game phono stage

Yep, Jim White at Aesthetix does everything well. I run an ARC Ref 2se but. could be very happy w Jim’s phono.

Modwright and Zesto also build excellent multiple input PH stages
