What active preamp...


...has almost all advantages of passive + the gain advantages of active and high input sencitivity?
What will be the price of this preamp?

For the sake of the stage I placed the equipment stand away from speakers. Only amps are standing next to my speakers. They're connected with 5m MIT 2i interconnects.

Now I'm forced to use an active pre-amplification but I miss passive drive that has no coloration and brightness.
My budget is sligtly over $1500

Marakanetz,
You are looking for a transparent preamp without colorations and yet planning to connect it with MIT 2 interconnects. IMHO they are OK for HT or Mid-Fi stuff, but will completely negate any benefits you could get from moving your equipment.
As to preamps, I would look into used CAT preamps. They have excellent phono section, btw.
