Assuming you're going to be using moving magnet or moving iron carts, I'd recommend the DB Systems DB-8, but it's $300 and you might not want to spend that much.
I have a DB Systems DB-1 preamp and the onboard phono stage is essentially the DB-8. I had a stand alone DB-8 years ago that I foolishly sold and wish I had back.
Right now, I'm also using a Schiit Mani II for the second turntable and it's OK but if I had to do it over again I wouldn't have bought it.
U-Turn Audio's Pluto 2 gets good reviews, it's $109. I've never heard one.
If you want to go really cheap, there's the Fosi Box X1 at $40.
The blissful counterstroke-a considerable new message.
