What's you budget for a phono preamp ? There's lots of choices from a couple of bills upward. There's Bellari, Creek, Monolithic Sound, Pro-Ject, etc. I owned a Monolithic Sound PS-2 with the optional HC-1B power supply that I sold last year because I was lucky to find an optional (discontinued) internal phono stage board for my preamp. The Monolithic was a pretty good phono preamp and extremely quiet, paired with my (low-output) Audio-Technica AT-OC9 MC cartridge. You may or may not find it a bit pricey at $879 brand new for the two pieces.
