[Josquin des Prez]

My Fosgate Signature v2 phono preamp has some issues that didn't get fixed when I sent it in for repair. I know that many of them have been rock solid, but now they are out of production, so it cannot be replaced. As a result I am getting a credit towards something else from the dealer.

My most reasonable choices are the Parasound Halo JC 3+ or for a bit more money the Herron Audio VTPH-2. They aren't local. I know I can audition one or the other, but both might be a bit trickier.

One is solid state, the other tube. Both seem to have a good reputation as far as I can tell. I really liked the sound of the Fosgate, but it had service problems so back it goes.

I don't know anything about either of these units. What are thoughts about these?
