Exploring Preamp options for the Pass XA25

Please feel free to share preamp options for the XA25. I presently have an Acoustic Research LS-3 and am not sure this is the perfect combination. The Pass Headphone preamp is one option that I'm considering. Tube preamps?

These are my list of recommendations so far.
Pass Labs XPA-1
Pass Labs XP-10
Herron VTSP-360
PS audio BHK
Backert Rhumba
Would any of the Prima Luna preamps be an option?

probably around $2500. The xa25 does not have balanced inputs. I think your right about everything else.
