Phono Preamp recommendation for VPI Prime

I just purchased the Prime. Currently have a ortofon 2m black cartridge but envision going to a MC cartridge. Current components are a Mac ma-6600, Revel F-30 speakers. Do I go tube or SS. Some of the ones I have started to research are Lehman Decade, Pass Xp-15, Manley Chinook. Any help sorting through this maze is appreciated.

I'm sure you'll also shortly receive recommendations for a Liberty Audio B2B-1 and a Herron Audio VTPH-2. I can't comment on those, but I ALWAYS see them recommended when people inquire about phonostages.

Well the difference is that the Herron's are usually recommended by users, while the Liberty is almost always recommended by Peter, the manufacturer.

I also would recommend that you look for a used Herron on Klyne, depending if you seek tube or solid state designs. Both are excellent.
