Preamp Upgrade

I have an ARC LS-17 preamp. I would like to find something a little more contemporary with subwoofer outputs and digital inputs.  I like the features of the McIntosh C2500 but that’s way above my budget.  Used is a viable option as most of my gear was purchased as such and I have gotten good value for my money.  $3500.00 is my max.  Open to all suggestions SS or tube. Not into HT but I have seen some HT controllers with some good (but in most cases too many) features.  Thanks!
