Opportunity to buy the best Preamp... but which?


On the tube front... AR Ref3 vs. CJ ART3 vs. VL TL-7.5 vs. Wavac PR-T1?

Or on the SS front... Burmester 808Mk5 vs Dartzeel NHB-18NS vs Krell Evolution2 vs MBL 6010D vs Halcro DM10?

My preference would be a neutral tube based model.

Any opinions?

I have audio aero capitole mk2 cd player , direct in my amplifier, I have tryied 3 pre amplifiers before - Audio research reference 3, audiopax model 5 and gamut d3, the AR ref 3 was a little better than the preamplifier that comes with cdplayer , the others did not add nothing, but I think in buy another cd player with SACD so I will need one preamplifier,my list became small: joule 150 mk2, wyetech opal or pearl, supratek . But now there is a MBL dealer in my country , what about the MBL preamplifiers 6011D or 5011.
