VPI Aries with JMW-10 need help

When I had a linestage, I had a MacCormack Phono Drive (not the micro) combined with a Shelter 501 Mk II.

Was happy with the results. with what I know now, I would probably throw in a cartridgeman isolater with it.

happy listening,

Many vintage preamps with phono.....go for a conrad Johnson premier 5 or 9. Classe DR series 5 or 6. Audio research 6B,8MRKII,10 or even the 11. SO many at great prices.

Try again, Schipo. The CJ Premier 5 is a power amp and the Premier 9 is a DAC :-)

Me, I'd go for a Denon DL-103 and an EAR 834P (used) and save half your money. Good luck, Dave

I would try new PSAudio phono stage which can be returned to PSAudio for full refund if you don't like it.I likemine a lot since it is fully balanced, have olume control and lot of gain to run even very low MC cartridges. Also lot of adjustment as far as load.

Sorry about using the wrong number prefix for Conrad Johnson it would be the PV 5 or PV 9. Thank you for the correction.
