Hello and welcome,
  Lots to read around here, and plenty of friendly and experienced people to ask questions of. Loan scheme contacts, too. What turntable/cartridge combo are you running? Any initial thoughts about which model phonostage you’re interested in?
All the best,
Mick.

Right now I'm running a Fluance RT84 with an AT7V cartridge and a Schiit Mani phono stage. This isn't a particularly fancy setup but it sounds very good overall. I'm not looking to "correct" anything in my system, just interested in trying out different phono stages so will likely take part in the loaner program. I'm particularly interested in the GRAM AMP 2 SE.

Hi Geoff WELCOME
I started with GA 2 SE and it's vary good. But if you can budget for that with a PSU1 power supply even better, a lot on here rate that combo vary highly indeed. I did not have the PSU1 when I had it. But I found it a lot better than the phono amp built in with my stereo amp and I lost a lot of the back ground noise ( pops and crackly ) too, happy days. As with all Graham Slee stuff it's built to last, you can always up grade with the PSU1 latter

Welcome. 

I had a Mani and don't recommend those. Mine was very noisy and hissy, then after a move to a place near several radio and TV stations, it started to pick up RFI. Drove me up the wall and I got rid of it. 

I prefer my G.S. Reflex by a very large amount.
