Re: JMW-9 arm or Signature? What phono pre?/nt\

Hmmm. Willing to build a SUT? If not, you are limited to MMs or HO MCs. In that case a Dyna 10x5 or Denon DL-160 would be a good value HO MC pick. With a SUT and possibly the 3g headshell weight, a DL-103 would sing. I use the DL-103 on a wand on my JMW-9/Scout with no HS weight with no resonance issues.
Building the SUT opens up your options tremendously to the world of LO MCs.
The DL-103 + CineMag SUT would cost about the same as the Dyna 10x5 ($375-380). Plus, when the Denon wears, $250 gets you the ruby cantilever/line contact retip from Sound Smith and you have a killer combo.
