I use, and recommend, a Transcendent Sound Grounded Grid preamp. If you upgrade the tubes and output caps, they are a great sounding pre at a great price, and are an enjoyable build.

Preamp Advice
I’ve narrowed my choices to 3:
Akitika PR-101
Van Alstine Insight+ ec (used)
Vincent SA-31 (non mk version).
I’m looking for any information on how these sound and any opinion on build quality/design. Also, any suggestions for others, with tone controls, in the $500 range are appreciated!
It will be used for a bedroom system consisting of an Emotiva UPA-1 amp, Infinity Reference 5’s, Kyocera T-910, and digital stuff via my Focusrite Saffire Pro 24.
Thanks!
