Best Preamp under 10K


Okay how about voting for best preamp under 10K. Its a tough call between the Levinson, Krell,Rowland, AR, CAT and numerous others, but I think I must go with the Levinson 380S. What do you think?

I have to agree with Tri....it is the Hovland HP100. I have compared it to the BAT, MLevinson, Pass Labs, CAT etc. They are the most neutral, and musical pre-amp I have heard.
Best value: Blue Circle BC 3, competes with CAT Best preamps: BC 3.1 ($4650) and BC 3000 ($6250)
Hi, To me the Bat 50se is "better sounding" than pre-amps costing over ten grand never mind under.
