Pre-Amp for Class D Amp

My brother use a pair Bel Canto 1000M(500W@8 ohm) class D power amp to drive a pair B&W 802D speakers. He is happy with the 1000M. The pre-amp is a Bel Canto Pre3VB. He want to improve sound. Is there any suggestion a better pre-amp to match 1000M? Thanks.

I second the tube preamp suggestions. I have partnered my REF1000Ms with a Pre3, then a Modwright LS100, then an Ayon CD5S (CDP + tube pre), an Audio Research Reference 5, then Reference 5SE.

It really complements the slightly dryer midrange of the ICE modules.
