I'd like to get a tube preamp recomendation


I've got an Ayre V3 amp and would like to couple it with a tube preamp. Has anyone paired a tube preanmp with the V3 that they feel is a great match?

My system is primarily used for analog.

Thanks in advance for your help

Tok20000 makes a good point, however, if you are so inclined I would consider either a CJ premier 17 or if your budget alows a 16ls II. I understand Blue Circle as well as BAT makes some very good tube pre-amps as well. Contact a couple of dealers advertising on the gon and see if you can arrange an in home trial. You will need to purchase a phono stage for either of the Conrad Johnson products I mentioned. I am not sure about Blue Circle or BAT.
