Preamp suggestions, yes again


I know these types of topics come up very often but here's another.

I'm looking for a preamp for my system. I currently use an Onkyo TX-SR705 as a pre. I have Klipsch RP-600M bookshelf speakers fed by a diy First Watt Aleph J amp. 

I'm looking at the Odysey Candela and the Van Alstine Vision SLR to start. I'd like to stay around this price point or lower.

I do not need phono but a remote is a must have. Obviously I'm open to ss or tubes. Thoughts on the two in considering? Other suggestions?

I upgraded from the Linear Tube Audio (LTA) MZ2 to the MZ3 and it was quite an improvement. Based upon recommended NOS tubes from Brent Jessee, the MZ3 provides tonality that really fits my requirements. The MZ3 drives either a tube LTA Ultralinear or upgraded solid-state SMc DNA-1.

Good luck on finding equipment that provides your tonality requirement!
