Solid-state alternative to Freya +


I just bought a new set of matched Rogers tubes for my Freya + and they should arrive after Thanksgiving. But it is a budget-buster for me.

What would you suggest as a solid-state alternative? 
Will I be able to sell the Freya + at a premium with the new tubes?

Thanks Audiogon community!

I owned the Freya+ and have 3 or 4 Schitt pieces playing a crucial role in my headphone setup. The new Schitt Mjolnir  (sp?) headphone/preamp is better to my ears by a lot. I tried this preamp with my Magnepan LRS+ and CODA #16 and Magtech amps. It was great and such a fun listen. It is my warmest sounding preamp.

However, my best warmish preamp is the Holo Serene. This thing is silent like the Benchmark LA4 but it adds a tinge of warmth. The Mjolnir | LA4 | Serene are my end game preamps.
