    I’m getting ready to sell one of these : http://www.loungeaudio.com/lcr-mr-iii

    I don’t think so. I have my stuff on a power unit so shut it all off after use.

    You can take the cover off and disconnect or block it.
    I was going to do this, myself, but the light grew on me.

    The Lounge LCR is a nice phono pre.
    I disabled signatures.

    Got any phono preamps in your collection that you are willing to part with, or would you rather just sit on them while they do nothing?

    I do, actually.
    The one that would serve your needs best is the Up Yours and Around The Corner.

    Earlier you said that you weren’t interested in a tube preamp. Still the case?

    I'm more open to it now, but I would still gravitate toward solid state.

    I may sell my Musical Surroundings Nova II. It's black, it's perfect, it would be about $800.00.

    Thanks Jesse, that's a good deal, but I should have mentioned I was trying to stay under $500.

    I just got a refurbished Cambridge audio 651P, for $100. Sounds pretty good, big improvement over the Parasound's built in phono amp.
