I forgot to ask what phono cartridge you have? It could make a difference as to what's recommended.
Preamp phono suggestions
I just acquired a current model high power Classe amp. I would prefer solid state or tube hybrid. 5 k would be my price limit.musical selections range from rock to chill. By the way on occasion I do like to crank it up for a concert like sonic experience. The speakers have an efficiency of 93.
