What separate tube phono stage do you use ?

I had a Precision Fidelity C7. Designed by Bruce Moore (Paragon, MFA, Audible Illusions). Six dual triodes and twin pots for volume/balance. Four-way source selector. No high level stage. Excellent SQ!

Hagerman Cornet II
Version III is currently being produced.   great sound around 600.00

Tooblue, unless you’re a teenager, any well built phono stage will outlive you, unless you define death as tubes wearing out, or in the even longer run, electrolytics going bad. Both of those events need not be “fatal”.

@inna NVO is located in Nicosia, Cyprus

Tom Evens groove plus

Allnic H1500SE II and will replace it with  Allnic H1500 SE II plus when it dies

I love my Aesthetix Rhea Signature with some of Andy’s low noise tubes. I haven’t read a lot about it on this forum, but really like mine.

Why tube? 

Allnic H-1201

@br3098 Any chance of a photo(s) of the interior of your PAB Croft. I spoke to Pear Audio about these units and apart from a wood facia, the weren't very forthcoming on internal ungrades. Seem they are asking a lot more than Croft does. Curious to see what they do. I have the tube regulated version. Thanks.

I use this Quicksilver. You can find it used for under 1 grand!

Eastern Electric Minimax Phono Stage is worth checking out. 

Greek part of Cyprus or Turkish ?

Do a search of NVO (New Valve Order) a small company from Cyprus competes with the big boys.

I would be using MMs for the foreseeable future, good ones. Croft/ Pear Audio, that's interesting, they make excellent turntables - reincarnation of Nottingham. I have Nottingham, by the way.

+1 on the recommendation for Croft.  I'm using a Pear Audio Classic Phono, designed and built by Glenn Croft.  It's easily the best sounding MM phono preamp I have ever owned and it plays nicely with all of my SUTs for MC needs.

Croft 25R (with Grant Fidelity/Shuguang 12AX7LS black tubes.) Minimalist MM only.
