Best Pre with a built-n phono section?


I’m wondering if there is a preamp out there that has a great built in phono section. Due to space limitations, I’d rather not go the separate pre / phono pre route. Associated equipment: Spectron Musician IIISE MK II amp, Magnepan 3.6 speakers, Electrocompaniet CD Player, Nottingham Ace TT with a Benz Glider H2 cartridge (2.5 mV output.) I would probably need to go SS pre; I could use a tubed pre if the heat out put was minimal. Thanks in advance for your suggestions!

Another contender for your criteria is the the Nagra PLP. It's tube, but runs cool. Also the Nagra PLL and VPS (separate pre and phono) but might work due to small size. I"ve personally heard the Aesthetix (Io, Io Eclipse, Rhea and Jupiter) and the Halco DM 10.

All are excellent.
