For the Cascade, what would be a go to phono amp?
What level are you in to ?
There are many good ones out there for me i love the Brinkmann Edison and that is just one of the good ones.
If you like we can easy have a chat about what i have been testet.

Hi Arko
I’m using a McIntosh MP1100 phono preamp connected via XLR. It has gain and impedance settings for the cartridge but no volume control, so it really is just a preamp, there is no extra processing of the signal. It’s no longer being sold new but is available on the used market.
However, so far as I can, tell the Cascade line level input is completely transparent. Its design, as I understand it, is passive except for a buffer on the input, which I think is necessary on any line input.
So any phono preamp that is “good” should be fine because the Cascade really does seem pass the line input unperturbed to the output.
