Phono preamp


Hello
I'm french, i'll search a good phono preamp to use with my verdier ,ikeda 407 arm, Koetsu rosewood and Audio research ref one.
I'll just miss a walker ref phono because of a very bad Hifi company MSS .. the king of hifi ....Anyway ,if somebody could give me some advice, i'm really interested
Thanks in advance

A Frenchman looking for advice in the land of freedom fries? Just kidding. Have you looked at the ASR, it has a very good reputation and should be available over there at a good price.
How about an Audiomat from France? Might want to look in to that and demo it if you can. Not sure what your budget is.

If you want some nice natural tube phono - TW Acustik from Germany is excellent - I own one

or if SS, the latest rave is Audia Flight phono from Italy. Two of my audio buddies own them. One of them previously owned the ASR battery phono stage. He says there is no comparison - the Audia flight kills the ASR in every respect, including noise level and especially dynamics and musicality. The ASR in comparison is sterile and one dimensional.
