VPI Aries/JMW 10/Lyra Delos -- Phono preamp rec?

Hi - I'm new to this forum and apologize if this question has been asked before, but any recommendations for a phono pre-amp to go well with a VPI Aries with the JMW10 tonearm and a Lyra Delos cartridge? I'd like to replace my Musical Fidelity V-LPS II. Budget ideally under $1500 but willing to consider something a little more expensive of significantly worth it. Thanks!

The new Rega Aria is very, very nice at the $1500 price point. If you can stretch your budget a bit more, then I would also strongly consider the Manley Chinook.

There is a very interesting unit available from Manley, Chinook. I think, it is worth the time to find a demo with it.

With your very nice table and cartridge you should really stretch for the best phono stage you can afford and the Chinook is a fantastic match with the Delos. I have both the Delos and Chinook, there is great synergy between the two.
