Looks like their is a kickstart project for a new version of the Bugle phono pre. This version will work with MM and MC TTs. Looks VERY nice and its close to its goal.

    See below:

    Hagerman has a Kickstarter project under way for another phono preamp, the AC-powered Bugle2, and if Hagerman reaches his Kickstarter goal the Bugle2 will sell for $99 for the kit, and $150 assembled and tested. It will work with both kinds of phono cartridges (moving-magnet or moving-coil).

    The prices listed here for the Bugle2 are for Kickstarter backers; the regular prices will probably be slightly higher.
