PHONO-Hagerman's Cornet or Wright Sound WPP200C

I'll be working together with a guy who is sending Lenco on my plinth design. But if anybody wants to pitch some ideas - PLEASE DO. Also photos, plans or PDF will be welcome and appreciated. This Lenco will be my first building experience of a Turntable. I do have a woodworking skills and enough determination to do it. My plan is to build a MONSTER over a 100 pounds using a combination of materials. Birch ply. and MDF sandwiched together of approximately 8 to 10 layers. The final touch will be painting Lenco's new plinth Ferrari Red gloss paint in my brother's furniture shop. I was also thinking about installing second tonearm, something like Rega RB300 but it is optional.
What do you think so far?

Comments, suggestions are welcome.

The WPP200C is on par with (and perhaps better in some regards) the phono in my Supratek Cortese, and that's high praise. The Cortese's phono section is one of the preamp's big selling points. Many own the Cortese solely for it's phono.

One advantage of the Wright is its dual gain controls, which makes cartridge and preamp matching virtually limitless. I use a set of home-made RCA loading plugs with the WPP200C to perfectly dial in the cartridge impedance match. Theoretically, once you find the best load, you can wire a resistor to the pin and outer ring of the Wright's RCA inputs.

Tvad. Thank you for a helping hand. I appreciate your comments regarding WPP200C. So, in your opinion I'll be better of choosing Wright over Hagerman. You see.... I'm not one of those guys that can afford replacing their gear every time they feel like it. I am trying to get right peace of equipment for the price within my budget. Of course I realise, there is something better out there but all I need is a system that will get me closer to enjoyment and appreciation for MUSIC. All the effort we put in building our systems and carefully selecting desire components should eventually lead to the most important aspect of this hobby witch is submerging in the sound of tunes that provoke our senses and imagination. Person that love and appreciate music should probably spend more time enjoying it then writing about it, so I am guilty as charged. On this note let me go to my little slice of heaven and enjoy what I love the most ( besides my wife & daughter of course ).
Ones again Thank You for your input, I really appreciate it.

Happy listening.

IMO, the WPP200C is a classic. Great dynamics. Great tone. Extremely flexible.

Also, the Wright products are hand made by one of high end audio's true gentlemen, and they tend to retain their value.

I admit I have no experience with the Hagerman products, but I am aware they have a strong following among the AudioCircle crowd.

Tvad, you are obviously more experienced then I am and most likely auditioned a number of different phono preamplifiers. I am not saying that I am completely inexperience but I think the best way to audition equipment is in your own listening room. I simply did not have that chance. So I would like to ask you if you have any other recommendations besides the ones I already mention. WPP200C & Hagerman are my only candidates at this moment but it doesn't eliminate possibility of including other phonostages to that list.
I am trying to be open minded, so any other suggestions will be also greatly appreciated.
