Which Preamp "internals" would you choose? Based on picture only


Please don't let country of origin influence, resale, etc. I'll keep it after I upgrade for a second system.  Just take into account the guts inside  (I'm no electrical guru so I am depending on people in the know). Of course, sound quality is the key. I know the Rogue is a favorite..however..it's still $1600. Is the Rogue really just an $800 preamp in a bigger box? I believe I am going to purchase one of these for short term and save up and get a much higher end preamp next year ($3500 +). I do need a pre for the next 9 or 10 months or so because I need inputs (I'm using my Pro-Ject MQA dac as a pre now, no analog inputs---actually sounds better than my Nova pre that I just sold)

All these have features and most importantly...the ability to switch inputs by remote (sorry Mapletree)

The rogue RP-1 is $1700 http://hometheaterhifi.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/rogue-rp-1-image3.jpg

The Pro-Ject Prebox RS is $650 http://s23.postimg.org/658xi67bv/image.jpg

Schiit Freya $700 (I would guess Saga is similar) http://www.schiit.com/public/upload/general/freya-PCB-1920.jpg

Also This Pro-ject all analog Prebox looks interesting..no internal pics $360.00 http://www.audioaffair.co.uk/pro-ject-pre-box-ds2-analogue-pre-amplifier?

Thanks for any opinions
