Headphone amp as pre amp


Hej

I'm considering to buy a tube pre amp and a tube power amp. Then I realized that my headphone amp, Feliks Audio Elise, has line out and should work as a pre amp. But what are the draw backs compared buying a pre amp?

Any suggestions of tube power amp, with EL84 or EL34 tubes. It has to be a Push-Pull as my speakers ar at 89dB sensibility. And if you have suggestions of a pre amp too I would be grateful.
Budget is aprox $4500 for both.

It can work well but is one line input sufficient?  

I am currently using a rogue audio RH-5 headphone amp / linestage preamp even though I have no interest in headphones.  It sounds amazing and has (4) inputs.
