Audio Research Pre-Amp advice


Hi, what would be a good used Audio Research pre-amp that has a remote, that is overall very musical. My budget is under 6K? I really don't want any Ref. pre's because too many tubes. Also something not too old, I do not want to have to bring in for service. I welcome and appreciate any advice. Thank you!

I have an Audio Research SP-16, which I recommend due to the tubes used. This pre-amp uses 12AX7 tubes which are inexpensive, and many brands make them. It also works flawlessly with most amps I have - it is also only single ended though.
