All I've used with my Krell KSA100s, FPB300 and FPB600 are tube preamps and never had any problems. The only issue I encountered is some tube preamp output impedance is too high and as a result, sound is dull and lacking LF/HF.
If you like MW, Dan is having a LS 100 preamp tour so you can audition before purchase. I think it's 6sn7 base so lots of tube rolling options. You can get more info on AC. Also there are several MW 36.5 on Agon that are reasonably priced.
