The little Sony in line ones that hifi-guy has that you can pick up for a fair price used on eBay are a good option.

No, man, I’m asking why doesn’t your friend join N&G and ask these questions for himself. No googling necessary.

That’s the fellas. There are usually a good few listings for them on eBay.

True, although he showed up on here the other night... All caps, as usual.

I often dictate text messages over Siri when I’m in the car and CarPlay is active. I’m pretty well spoken and some of its interpretations are wild.

One of our buddies always uses Siri to read our WhatsApp messages in the car. So when we know he's in the car we just go wild with sexual innuendo because Siri has to read it and we are juvenile children.

The Ortofon T-5 is a similar plug-in SUT that often shows up in pre-owned listings.

I think it’s the exact same piece and that Sony made them for Ortofon to brand on licence.

Yes this is the #1 reason I haven't enabled Siri in my car

Isn’t the Graham Slee Elevator known for its adaptability, sound quality, and affordability?

Yeah but it's far beyond his budget unfortunately...

The Graham Slee Elevator is a MC step-up amplifier, versus a transformer. Pros and cons with each, but I'd generally recommend a used SUT to keep price down since passive devices don't really wear out. SUTs tend to add less noise than step-up amplifiers, but are less phase coherent.
