I did recently replace a $3K preamp with one for $599. They sounded the same as the $3K preamp with the same mono amp I was using. So I was happy, and I sold the $3K preamp for almost what I bought it for. Even happier.
However, I have 2 other amps that are totally useless (incompatible) with the $599 preamp. So in some ways I am getting what I paid for. A little sadder now.
