What is the best premp for Atma-Sphere MA-1 3.3 amp?

I am thinking about Atma-Sphere MA-1 amp to drive Sound Lab speakers. I can go with A-S preamps (MP-1 or 3) but I was wondering if there are better sounding or better value preamps that match well with MA-1 amp. I am new to tubes and am concerned about the tube hassle, but it seems that the improvement in 3D and clarity of tubes may be worth it. Any recommendations? I wan to stay slightly below the proverbial "point of diminishing returns."

Its very hard to beat the MP-1 regardless of what other pre-amps you put against it. 

The MP-3 is almost 90 % of the performance and with Resistor and Caps upgrade Atma Provides I'm sure your getting a little closer.
