I have a preamplifier mcintosh c41 with my ML 23.5 and 804 nautilus B&W. Which preamplifier is best for my ML 23.5?

Hi,
Although the choice of preamplifier depends on source and is a matter of personnel taste I had excellent results, many years ago, with an Audio Research LS2 and a ML23.5. Source was a Primare 104 cd player and speakers were Dynaudio Contour 4.0.
The matching preamp was the Levinson 26 and 26s.
Those were world class preamps.
The most synergistic preamp for a 23.5 is the ML 26s. (see my system) They don't appear used very often but I think there's one for sale right now on the Gon.
.
The Essential preamp was voiced with ML, I think it is one of the best out there. What is your budget?
Do you need phono?
If you are going only digital a passive Placette would be a good option.
