Phono stage help


Hello,

I could really use some advice. I have a PS Audio GCPH and a GFP-750 preamp. I am toying with the idea of either getting an EAR 834p, Parasound JC 3 or getting rid of my GFP-750 and modding my GCPH and using it alone. Can anyone steer my in the right direction here?

Hi Keith,
I have the original first version Basis Vector arm on my Basis 2001 table.
I just got the Sutherland Hubble. I agree with Luvmusic about the versatility and sound quality of Sutherland products. I was using an internal phono from BAT with the Vk-32se.
I did a little experimenting. I found that without the GFP, the sound was more focused, clearer and sharper than with the GFP plugged in. There was also less noise without the GFP. So, the GFP is out. With these results, why would I want to ever add a preamp to my only phono, 2 channel system? I guess that some add gain, but with less noise? What am I missing here?
