Just in case you want really cheap and very good, I recently got an Andover Sound Spinstage Phono preamp as a backup for my all-tube phono preamp. For $249 dollars. It is a moving magnet and moving coil preamp. In MM mode, it has so much more flexibility that I have ever seen - able to adjust both resistance and capacitance. In moving coil mode, it uses a transconductance (transimpedance?) circuit which automatically matches to your MC cartridge without setting impedance and the like.
I am using it with a Ortofon Synergy G cartridge that is worth 10 times the phono preamp, and I'm pleasantly surprised at how good it is. Michael Fremer reviewed it in his Tracking Angle magazine, and was giddy about it.
Again, I'm sure you can do better. You probably can't do cheaper and better...
