Please look into the Cayin/VAS line. The US distributor, Steve, is good friend of Harry's and they recommend each others equipment. They are local to each other so it is easy for them to 'listen'. I have a few Cayin and VAS pieces and marry it with my VPI turntable. Excellent sound, and value.
Thanks guys for your advice and i have been looking at your ideas. My real problem is a phono preamp integrated or not, i am heading in the direction of buying something i cannot audition first. I do like Bob's suts but there are so many phono stages that look great. HELP

I had the Spendor s8e and I used them with all Quicksilver.It was a great combination!
