Hi, I'm new to this forum but I've been picking up some good information from it for a while and I thought I would post this, hoping for some advice from all ou knowledgeable people. A couple of years ago I thought it was about time for me to upgrade my late 80's hi fi and, since then, I've been bitten by upgrade-itis. Not that it's a bad thing and I haven't finished yet. So my question is about a phono pre-amp. My system at the moment is Project X2 with Hanah EL cart, Arcam FMJ A39 amp, Kef R3 and an Arcam r-phono preamp. I also have a Cambridge CXNv2 for streaming.
I thought about upgrading the Cambridge (only a matter of time and saving up) but I'd like to get the analogue source sorted out first. With a budget of around £1k (or maybe a bit more) what pre-amp would improve on the r-phono in terms of detail, soundstage and all the other lovely things my LPs should be delivering?
Hope you can help,
Mike Truman
