Check out Pro-ject Phono Box DS3 B. I have one as I just entered the balanced world of hifi. It is SS but they do have a tube model.
Neutral preamplifier recommendation $1K new
Must have: Active, remote, two XLR inputs and XLR output.
Units I’m considering.
Denafrips Hestia
Ladder Bach
Schiit Kara
Topping Pre90
Vincent Audio SA32
Looking for a unit that measures well & has no/little sound of its own. Right now I’m leaning towards the Kara.
