To OP: I would recommend that you take a look at Doge Audio 8 Tube Preamp: https://doge.audio/product/doge-8-clarity-2019-edition/.
I have been using one for over five years now and extremely happy with it. I use it with a pair of Doge Audio 9 Mono Power Amp to drive the Magnepan 1.7i. I also pair it with a set of Manley Snapper Mono Power to drive the Tannoy Turnberry. It's not a very popular tube preamp here in Audiogon, but it has such high performance, not to mention the value ($1,500), that there are cult follows with this preamp.
