And there's a silly priced, minty 562 on eBay at present for �150. Steal it now and don't look back!

Which cartridge do you use? There's also a 515 moving coil board for the 562 on eBay, so you could have a one box solution*

*A separate phono stage into the 562 will still sound better. I know as I've tried the board and upgraded it to the Musical Fidelity XLPS, which cost about �80 used. It will be even cheaper now as that was around five or six years ago.

Cheers
