Pre-amp with balanced suggestions?


I'm looking to add a pre-amp to my setup. I've been 100% computer audio for awhile, but have a turntable that I need to integrate now.

I need something with balanced in and out, and I don't need a phono stage in the pre (I have a nice outboard phono pre).

I'm looking for something under $3000 used, transparency, detail, and holographic imaging are my priorities. Something that adds color is not what I want, just neutral and clean.

So what might you suggest?

Sounds like a Bryston BP26 might be right up your alley. Ultra transparency, dead quiet background, holographic imaging, absolute neutrality with nothing added, and a the balance of a 20-year warranty if you can find one. Best of luck.
