would suggest for a bat vk-30... can be had for a $1400-$1900.... has remote, phono stage, se and xlr, ies.... nice build quality, excellent sonics and reliabilty..
sonic signature is close/better than a bat vk-5i ( i think the bass is better and uses less tubes..
i dont know of a fully equipped pre with a remote/build quality for less ( steal of the century imo)... the major drawback is it uses 6-6922/7308's on which nos retubing can get pricey....
