JB, the Khozmo is a very nice looking piece of kit. I can't help you with advice regarding resistors, my concern is whether your amp would have enough gain to use with a passive line stage. You didn't mention that subject in the specs you listed.
I don't know how much this piece will cost you, but just yesterday I received from Modwright an SWL 9.0 Linestage, and it just put me over the top in the chase for the sound quality I've been trying to attain for all these years. As my Virtual System is listed, I really am "Done For Now".
By the way the unit I got was a trade in, which has a new upgraded power supply, tube board, and new MWI capacitors, all for $1450, shipping and tax included. The much, much better preamp you are seeking may not cost as much as you might think.
Good luck with your search for a preamp, regards,
Dan
