If you're not already aware, there's a VK-P80 for sale for an attractive price over on USAM if there's enough left in your budget for it.
How do I choose a phono preamp?
I’ve not owned a turntable in almost 40 years and want to start listening to vinyl again. Im starting from scratch and hope to get guidance on how to select a preamp and table that will likely be the last one I own. My current equipment includes and BAT VK-60, an Eversolo A8 Streamer, a BAT VK-52SE preamp, a Revox Reel to Reel and a pair of Martin Logan CLS-1s. I will soon be adding a second VK-60 and will convert the amps to mono.
I know nothing about phono preamp, turntables, or cartridges. Where do I start? Budget is around $15k USD for all and I don’t mind purchasing used equipment. I’d appreciate any thoughts.

@thecarpathian Yes, I've seen it; however, I'd rather wait for a P10SE or perhaps the P12SE. From what I'm reading, both the 10SE and 12SE are much better options. In the short run, I could buy a VK-P5 to get me through until I get this vinyl "experiment" figured out.
