Looking for recommendations. The market is awash with great preamps, but very few with A/D & optical output. My Lyngdorf MP-50 processor will only take digital inputs.
Budget? Ideally under £1000. The bottom end of the market is the Pro-ject Phono Optical, but this doesn't measure well. After that there seems to be a huge jump to the £900+ bracket with these:
Parks Audio Puffin - around £800 after import duties - a bit DIY
Unison Research Uphono - £900+ - may be suitable, not easy to find in stock
PS Audio Nuwave phono - £1000+ - will be expensive after import & voltage conversion
Leema Agena - £4k? - need lottery win!
Any others out there, what do others have?
thanks!
