The really obvious advice is a Kairn. But, like in the quiz show "QI", I am probably triggering alarms and a claxon.
What would be the rest of your system?
Would you consider a change of direction - e.g. valve? Possibly an Audio Note Kit? I found that a Kairn / Klout combination tried to something like sound like a good 6SN7/300B amp (dark tonal balance, body and soul) - but there is no substitute for the real thing

I bet you can’t wheelie a unicycle!
If you like what the lk 1 has been doing all these years and fancy a more musical and more detailed version of the sound then a late smps kairn is what you should be looking at.
It took a good deal on a kk to get me to upgrade from mine and I still use it daily in a second system it feeds speakers for my bedroom, study and bathroom so it's on a lot of the time, I never get tired of it, oh and it has a sweet phono stage too (unless you get the kairn pro which is line level only)
