Preamp for Clayton Audio S40?


I am going to purchase a Clayton Audio S40 amplifier. I am not sure which preamps mate well with it. I would like to hear input from anyone that owns one of these amps. Thanks

Bombaywalla, For the record,I think you got it backwards - a high imput impedence in an amp is an important criteria for most tube pre amps. 47K or higher should work fine with just about any tube pre amp.
Bombaywalla - I read the article. Personally, I thought the reviewer was over the top in recommending a SS pre amp just because of a potential, and slight, electrical mismatch might occur if the user wasn't mindful in selecting the pre-amp. IMHO the user should keep an open mind should he have an inclination to a tube pre-amp and not just blindly exclude one because of this reviewers comments.
