Playing devil's advocate is one thing, just plain misinformed is another. A comment like the one above may move me to avoid your future posts on this board. That would be a shame, but please try to watch out when personal opinion outweighs established and provable knowledge.

Getting back to the discussion at hand, Music Hall also makes a phono pre-amp in inexpensive ($100-$200) range. I have experience with their entry-level turntable and it really does impress me.
