I think a better choice would be to keep what you have, save more money, then do an upgrade. In less then a year, after you've had a taste of the D75, you are most likely going to get the upgrade bug. So, set a goal for a used phono stage in the 1000 to 1500 range or more if you like, or go for a new Primare R32. The R32 is a very versatile duel mono design from Sweden, with a list price of 1500, but today I found out you can get them for less, as with most new audio gear, if you shop. Research them on primare.net or you can find them here in the industry directory: Primare Systems. In the long run, having any nice phono stage to settle on in the future will allow you to up grade or experiment with other cartridges rather than changing out phono stages.
