SOLD Wanted MC Phono pre amp - nothing too fancy

[trumpetman]

MC Phono pre amp wanted for my Lenco playground / test system which only has a MM input
Cheap is good, reliable and working absolutely necessary, adjustable loading, gain would be nice. Always liked Rega, never had Project, what might you have to rehome?
Would £100 ish do it????
Reason - I've been inspired by our very own @rabski who put a MC cartridge on his Lenco, and Linn arm and want to give mine a try, but not in my main system yet , too much faff atm
Please indicate on this thread and PM and we can take it further
Thanks

i've got a Michell Iso MC stage, bit over budget though at £150. not got a box, so might have to ask Jack nicely next time he's doing a UK Tour.

I have a Rega Fono MC mk4 (the latest variant) for £200 if that’s within your budget.

I have this one spare @trumpetman
The well respected "The Phono Box" by Pro-ject.
It's configured for MM but can be switched to MC (but I'm not sure how. Maybe someone can highlight).

Collected £60

It's internal 'jumpers' that you set in line with the illustrations. Take the cover off and all should be clear.

Would an Arcam rphono be any good? MM&MC with adjustable gain and capacitance and variable resistance loading. Don’t have the adjustment tool but use a toothpick. Manual available online

 

[martinpix]

the project phono box mk2 is very good for the money rrp is £199 I think but they come up all the time on eBay for £75 ish. something like this the older versions as above aren't as good

I have a Tisbury Domino that is surplus to requirements. I would only want about £75 for it.

Very good sounding phono stage for the money.

In decent nick and boxed. Has adjustable gain and input load to suit most MC carts. This one:
