Preamp matching for Krell FPB amplifier


It seems to me that the obvious choice would a Krell preamplifier such as the KRC, KRC-HR, or the KRC-3. That being said I am sure that there are other manufacturers whose preamplifiers mate well this amplifier. The Krell amplifier is a pre Cast technology FPB. I was hoping to find out what current and previous owners have used and what kind of system integration was experienced.
Thank you for your assistance in this matter.

Have an option of getting a mint 2nd hand KRC for the same price as KAV 280p to go with a non-cast FPB.

Which do you think is a better option? The KRC used to be their top of the line preamp and the KAV is the current entry level - would technology have improved so much to make a previous top of the line preamp inferior to a present entry level one?
