Krell FBP200C/which tube pre will sound best


I have a Krell 200C and want to make a jump to tubes in the pre-amp to smooth out the sound. My speakers are B&W-802. Shunyata sidewinder gold power cords, wireworld ecilpse 2 speaker cable. Krell KAV-250 cd. My only concern is I hear alot about upkeep. Need some imput. I listen to jazz, classical music, thanks in advance for any guidance you can offer.

Be careful!

I have the FBP300 that just came back from Krell with a LOT of repairs having to be done.
They told me that they feel that the person that I bought it from, probably hooked it up to an inferior tube amp.
I would clear it with Krell before I made that move.

I have the FPB mated with the KRC-HR driving big B&W speakers. ... A match made in heaven!
