I know the Zesto Andros is really quiet, which I own and is fantastic in terms of noise for a tube phono pre. But even a used one will probably be around $3500 (retail is $4700). I can give you my dealer's name to see if he can give you a good price, but have no idea how low he can go. Feel free to message me if interested. Best of luck.
Do they make a quiet great sounding phono pre amp??
Hi, I have purchased and listened to 3 phono preamps which are: A musical surroundings phonomena, musical surroundings Nova II, and a Manley labs Chinook. The Manely labs Chinook is by far bettter sounding then the first two (double the cost too). But, All three have given me nothing but trouble (noise,noise,noise even terrible clipped signals!), and 2 of them basically failed on me. So before I go DIGITAL, can someone please tell me who makes a phono preamp in the $2,000-$3,000 range (tube or solid state) that I can rely on, and sounds as good or better than the Chinook?? Thanks.
