Which sub $1k phono stage to go?


All,
Right now I am in the market of a sub $1k phonoe stage, and I need some advice. My setup is VPI MK IV, Rega RB300, and Benz Micro Glider. The rest of the system is YBA integre Delta DT and Atlantis Seolane, harmonic teck wires all through. I am using Musical Fidelity X-LP (the older can model), and I feel it is the bottle neck in the whole system. It lacks the resolution and details, and bass is not satisfying either. While I can't audit all the phono preamps out there in the market, so I am wondering if you can point me to the right direction on what phono stage I should audit, and also if there is anything I need to do to improve the rest of the system. Thanks a lot for your time.

used a phonomena and grado ph-1. both have their positive qualities, but ultimately, no match for the p-75.
Did you read where the Graham Slee Era Gold mKV made class A in stereophile. I couldn't agree more!
I am currently doing a demo of the new Blue Circle BC27. MSRP $595.00
I took home the one Gilbert Yeung brought to CES.

I like what I hear. Clean, quiet and musical like most Blue Circle gear.

I am writing up comments, which I will post as a Audiogon review very shortly..
