Musical Fidelity CD Pre 24 or Linn Ikemi?

I'm trying to decide between a Linn Ikemi and a MF CD Pre24. I had settled on the Ikemi (I own a Karik). But I'm intrigued by the MF (which I can't demo), especially since I've considered replacing my Adcom GFP-750 preamp (which I like). Does anyone have experience with the MF and Ikemi, or at least insight into the MF? How close is the CD Pre24 to the Nu-Vista or A324 DAC? And how is the CD Pre24 preamp section? Also, any comments on the apparently modest resale values of MF gear? Thanks.
