I'll keep your suggestions in mind though as it's ineveitable that I will be purchasing a higher end TT and proper pre-amp soon enough.
Careful there... if you're like me, you'll find yourself re-ripping with any significant upgrades. After all, that sound is stored 'permanently' on CD-R's and you get to hear the sound of that cartridge & preamp forever...
