One thing I would keep in mind is the minimum gain from the phono stage because depending on your preamp it may overdrive your preamp. This happened to my Bryston 17B cubed preamp with the Parasound JC3+ and the Pass Labs XP-17 (and likely the XP-25 which has the same minimum gain as the XP-17). I have an Ortofon 2M Black cartridge. Phono stages that have minimum gains in the 40-50dB range that works well with my Bryston are the Pass Labs Aleph Ono, Simaudio 310LP, PS Audio Stellar Phono and the Musical Fidelity NuVista Vinyl.

Hi
I am looking for a phono preamp I have a radio antenna behind my house (I have had problems with the radio signal and noise with phono -tubes) so I am determined to go in search of a solid state, I am inclined to the warm sound, any recommendations?
