Frenchmon, have you looked at the Bellari tube phono stage? I haven't heard them but some have recommended them as being able to perform beyond their price range. www.spearitsound.com carry them. Actually, they are a Jolida dealer as well, I believe, Jack may be able to give you a good idea of how the two would compare. Email Jack during the week, on the weekend his helper sometimes answers for him and he isn't as informative.

Actually MrP...I forgot to mention to you in the earlier email, while at Wylies...He had a Bellari connected to the VPI. It had a nice warm sound to it. He got the Musical Design tube preamp without the phono stage so being a dealer, he has the Bellari. It sounded pretty good to me. I asked him how did he think it sounded, and he said he really does not have any other brand to compare it too. But as far as I could tell it had things sounding pretty mellow to me.
