The Audio Research SP8,SP10,SP11 great phono stages vintage but still competes with the best and maintain a good resale if you decide to up grade.
full tube preamp with phono under $2500
What full tube preamp with phono, MM and MC would you recommend for under $2500 new or less used. I am looking to put together a vinyl only all tube system in my den. I have a Nobis Convigore amplifier I will be using, which is basically an update on the Dynaco ST70. It has very nice wood surround which matches my Sota Cosmos plinth and power supply. I will be using an SME309 with Lyra Delos cartridge. If there is a preamp with a similar wood surround, that would be a plus. Looking for a more natural aesthetic, with wood and tubes. Speakers will be PSB Stratus Gold.
I'd like to be able to run at least two turntables into the preamp, either through the mm and Mc or using the aux with an outboard phono pre.
Any thoughts?
