Used Herron VTPH-2 is the best possible phono stage in that price range. Nothing close, arguably at any price. Second choice would be a used Herron VTPH-1, especially if it is at the current mod level.
Phono Preamp - 2k budget?
System:
Rogue Audio Cronus Magnum Integrated Amplifier KT120's
Pro-Ject RM-5SE (Blue Point #2)
Anthony Gallo Reference 3.1's (No SA amp)
Relatively new to Vinyl and don't see going back to a digital system anytime soon so I am looking to move into a new playing field with my phono preamp. I listen to Classic Rock, Rock, A good amount of acoustics and a dab of classical. If anything, my system is lacking in bass so id prefer a phono preamp that is more on the dynamic, lively side of things if thats possible.
All suggestions are welcome!
