I have a Scout set up with 103 Denon, I have not used the ones you list, I am using a Dynavector 75 and a Blue Circle 707 both very good. You might want to look at the minimalist version of the 707, which is short on aesthetics but long on performance. It is the same circuitry in a PCV tube with large external power supply and is a little over $900 as opposed to the $2200 of the 707. BC makes very good equipment but doesn't get much press. The unit is called something thingy, bad name but good product. You can put it out of sight so looks won't matter.
Best Phono stage for my system - from my list
I narrowed down my list of phono amps after reading a lot of posts on AG and other sites, reviews, etc. My system - CJ PF2/MF 2200 amp/pre, VPI Scout JW-9 arm with LOMC Denon cart.
I am thinking Jolida 9A, EAR 834, Sim Audio Moon LP 5.3, Wright Sound WPP 200c, Minimax, Threshold FET 10.
I think the Dodd phono is a killer, but is way above my budget. The Jolida is by far the cheapest, the EAR has a lot of great reviews, the Wright and Minimax as well.
The Threshold is scarce but also well regarded.
Any suggestions?
