recommendation for phono pre amp and mc cartridge, around 1000$ each

you wrote "was the Denon 103R."
so right now you are not using the WT ?

i read that the E-Glo Petit have kind of noise reduction parts.

those reductions always worry me that they also reduct part of the music.

thanks, i'll check it too.
the thing is that i am trying to find the right match with my tt and arm

I have experienced the difference between high and low output MC cartridges switching from Hana MH to ML. ML seems to have more miniscule details in its sound reproduction. I am using QHW Vinyl phono stage, see M. Fremer's review, and I like very much what I am hearing. My choice of music is similar to yours. This combination is within your price range. Hope it helps.

Hana makes great cartridges around your price range.  Musical Surroundings has some very quiet and flexible phono stages in your price range.  If you want to save some money and spend more on your cart, consider the Parks Puffin phono stage.  It's excellent for the price.

stone1,

That's correct, I sold my WTRP years ago, although the 103R is still in my rotation of cartridges. I haven't heard anything about the E-Glo containing any noise reduction circuitry. Nothing I've read indicates that.
