Boulder L3AE with Phono pre-MC/MM selector switch?
I know a fellow who is selling one. He didn't have it connected so I didn't get a chance to hear it but it is in mint condition and the build quality is superb.

REGARDS SNOWWell, I just pulled off the impossible by doing a double-blind comparison all by myself, purely by virtue of the fact that I completely and stupidly forgot what I did last. I guess that getting old does have its advantages after all -

I read somewhere that the phono stage was pretty nice. Here is a link to a few consumer reviews if this helps. http://www.audioreview.com/cat/amplification/preamplifiers/boulder-bikes/PRD_125271_1591crx.aspx also here is a link to a fellow on audiogon talking about his. http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/fr.pl?icomp&1173928695&read&keyw&zzboulder+l3ae
