SS preamp with Pass XA 60.5 amps


Hi

I'm a long time tube pre guy and willing to give it a shot with a SS pre. Budget up to $4k. I heard not such great things on Pass preamps such as xp-10 and previous models.
How is the match with Ayre k-1xe ? Any other ideas.
Thanks in advance to all repliers.

Bryston's BP26 was well reviewed. Simple circuit with very few do-dads. Basically a selector, volume, and balance. If I recall it was in the $2500 - 3000 range. No blalanced ins or outs, if that's important to you.
Sorry, I think I meant the BP6. The BP26 does have balance inputs and outputs. Either way, both great units.
