Seems like you should decide whether you want more tubes (warmth?) into you audio chain as you already have the tubed PrimaLuna. If not, maybe go with a SS (solid state) phono stage.
All of the suggested phono stages mentioned by members have good/great reviews, however the PS Audio Stellar is a new modern design (2019-2020) which was designed to compete with what became before it in the market. The PS Audio Stellar got many fantastic reviews and punches way above it’s price point. It was designed by young engineer and vinyl enthusiast Darren Myers - I was impressed
with his interview with Michael Fremer https://www.analogplanet.com/content/axpona-2019-encounter-ps-audio-electronics-designer-darren-myer...
If you can afford it’s a great option.
