RE: move up from K&K phono, any suggestion?

What are you looking for in terms of a sound difference? More dynamics? For that I'd recommend either an EAR 324 or a used ASR Basis Exclusive. If you like the balance of sound you've got now, I'd get a Herron VTPH-2A. It's awesome and you can find them used for a reasonable price. If you can spend more, I'd find a used Lamm LP2 or LP2.1. They sometimes pop up around $4-5k. I've had/heard a lot of phono preamps and the Lamm is the best I've ever heard, not counting stuff that costs $25k.
