Looking to upgrade my Phono Stage.

I have a MMF-7 with Goldring Eroica cart. Presently I am using a Sumiko Phono box and am looking to upgrade. My budget is not great but up to the $500 used market. I've been eyeing a Primare, a Mistral and Lehman but need ideas. My system is: Cary SLI-80 integrated, Reference 3A MMdeCapoI's, with Yamamura M5000 IC's and speaker cable. I am using Coincident IC's in the TT to phono stage as I heard it was an excellent cable in this regard. I listen mostly to jazz and classical on the TT. Any recommendations are appreciated.

If you come across an Audiomat phono stage at your price, give it a listen if you possibly can.

Another option would be a Klyne SK-5A, if you were considering an amp upgrade for the future. The Klyne's a great, relatively-unknown preamp, and its phono stage is terrific.
