Phono Preamps with "balls" ?

taking the cue from another thread about speakers with "balls" - what are some phono preamps that you have found to be the most powerful, dynamic and yet still sound clean.  
i turn on my digital sources and they are often much more robust sounding and would like to know if there are phono preamps that can deliver.  thanks in advance

Is (rauliruegas) always as "all-knowing" as this?

@jcarr Apparently raul missed that comment about the MAT-12...

I’d suggest Spectral; even though that means buying a used DMC20 preamp with the optional phono stage.

Dear @atmasphere : No, I don't missed but I was posting to him. I know very well the MAT discrete bipolar design. It could be a good alternative in your designs instead the out of production devices you were using.
