Your Ultimate Phono Preamp: Which One Would You Choose?

Apt 1 was a great preamp in the day.   I bought one used , it was my first real preamp.   I regret selling that and the Amp 1

I'm very happy with my GoldNote PH-10 w/PSU-10. I'm using balanced outputs, and it is dead quiet.

I was recently tempted by a killer deal on PH-1000 but I've got other priorities right now.

Now I'm intrigued by the BMC MCCI and glad the extra one that @blisshifi had for sale sold so quickly, or I might have jumped on it and then had some splainin' to do when my wife got home. 

I use Lehmann Audio Black Cube Statement High-End MM MC and am very pleased with this Phono Pre-amplifier

I mostly listen to vinyl so the phono preamp is important for me. Next what is ultimate to one person is basic to another. My budget for a phono preamp is around 6k. So I have no experience above this. For 5 years I listened to an E Glo S. Overall a very good sounding phono preamp. I’m selling it now on Audiogon with an upgraded linear power supply. I switched to the ModWright PH 9.0 X-T. This is another great phono stage. I’m very pleased with it.
