Which preamp? Opinions? Suggestions?

Hello Everyone,
I'm just getting back into audio after many years away. I managed to buy a mint set of Infinity IRS Betas. I will be driving the mid/high towers with a pair of VTL 450 monoblocks and the woofer columns with a Phase Linear 400. I have not chosen a preamplifier yet. I have been looking at CJ, Audio Research and McIntosh. I would probably buy something pre ownded on this site. Any thoughts or suggestions out there? I know everone has their own taste in what sounds best but I'd like to hear what everyone has to say.
Thanks.

I don't think the Infinity system allows a single amp to run full range. Isn't there a servo feedback system between the woofer cabinet and the amp driving it through the crossover?

That system may have been eliminated by that time, but at any rate I'm pretty sure this system needs a separate woofer amp.
