Phono stage to match the EMT TSD-15 SFL ?

Follow EMT fans

I own now for several years an EMT 950 BBC/929/TSD15SFL with great pleasure. I'm trying to optimize the sound. Borrowed from Dusch the upgraded MC card, but for me it did not improve sound much. Now I bought from Dusch the cable to connect the TSD directly with a phono stage and I was wondering which stage to start working with? Any suggestions (current set-up = AR REF3, Kronzilla SX, Vivid Audio K1, cable all Cardas GR)

Cheers, Broederen

I have had my TSD-15 for a a few months now. IMO, it's a great cartridge for the money. Perhaps a Leben phono stage with the Auditorium 23 step-up would be worth exploring.
I would contact a Leben dealer, as they all seem to have EMT as well.
