I would look for a used SF Line1, 2, or 3, all of which fit your description with one exception: remote switchs preamp in/out of standby rather than complete power on/off.
Who offers full remote functions in a tube pre
I've had little success finding a tube preamp with that has power on/off, volume, source, and mute via remote in a moderate priced unit (under $2000). I've investigated Quicksilver, Rogue, Quad, Audio Illusions, and a few others. Most offer volume remote only. It will drive a Parasound HCA 1500A and Vandy 3A speakers. Suggestions?

I agree with the Sonic Frontiers Line Series pre-amps. They have the most complete and highest quality remotes I've ever seen in high end pre-amps. The remote does not turn the pre-amp off, but puts it into standby. I own and love the Line 1 for my hodge-podge HT system, and use the Line 2SE in my main 2 channel stereo system. They're great, and either is available for under $2K. Cheers. Craig |
Golden Tube Audio SEP-2 or SEP-3 meets the requirement. http://cgi.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/cl.pl?preatube&1048354160&2&3&4& |
