Passive Pre - No Regrets?

I'm interested in hearing from folks who have moved from a high quality active preamp (I'm currently using a CAT SL1 Ulitmate)to a passive preamp and have had no regrets. I'm particularly interested in hearing from those that have switched to a Placette or Sonic Euphoria (the two I'm considering). I'm using a CAT JL2 Amp feeding Merling VSM-MX.

Great report, and may I say that I'm not at all surprised at the outcome.

Is your Active brand new? Because I believe Guy thinks they keep getting better over time. Like wine, or cheese.

Good advice. But I'll put money on you liking the Active at least as much and probably more.

I am VERY curious to hear what you have to say about the two Placette units, so please report back.
