Pre-amp selection: Ayre Vs ARC


I've been researching over and over and thought I can find the answer without asking the question, but I can't. So here it is:

To match an Ayre V1x, will I be better off with staying to K1x or will i have a synergistic combo with ARC LS25 MkII. Both were praised for their speed, and imaging, soundstage, etc.

So far so good.
Now Just what if I compare the K-1x with the ARCRef 2? Will they be in the same league? (For Manhadave)

As for Kurt, I thought > pre-amp tube are more or less troublr free bacause of low current and voltage.. so no biasing, tubes will last 5-6 years (possibly longer than I would keep it), etc.
