Help to pick a preamp for technic sl1210 with Ortofon nigh club s cartridge

Hi ! I’m new to tt and needle , please help me pick out a preamp for my Technics sl1210 with Ortofon night club s cartridge, currently I connect them to Nad pp2e phono stage then to primaluna dialogue preamp then to my 20 watts class a amp then to a pairs of Nola bookshelf speakers , The sound is ok but not that impress me , I want to improve the sound a little more , I been looking at the lehmann black cube se II any thought on it ? My budget is less than for 1k either used or new any recommend? Thank you all

Hi atl4love,
I recommend choosing a different cartridge first. The nightclub S is a DJ stylus for “Scratch & Mix” according to Ortofon, not HiFi. For $1k you’ll have some really nice choices, even for both preamp and cartridge. Good luck and have fun!

I suggest a Hana SL and a Parks Puffin. A little over your budget but should sound great.

@big_greg the Hana sl is very interesting, should I jump on this One ?

Do you have a local dealer who can help you setup the cartridge properly??? That is more important than nits between competent carts. The Parks is good sounding, so is the Hana, Ortofon makes some great carts also :-)
have fun
