Tubed Pre match with a Spectron Musician IIISE?


That economic stimulus check will soon be burning a hole in my pants. Wondering about a good tubed preamp (prefer balanced connections) match with the Spectron IIISE. Associated equipment: Cambridge 840C CDP and Von Schweikert 4SR speakers.

Simon, from Spectron, mentioned this new, soon to come out, mysterious pre-amp to my hi-fi guy but wouldn't give out any specifics. I will be in the market soon for a new pre-amp for my Spectron amp and I am dying to find something out about this new pre-amp.
I do know that Spectron is working on a pre-amp for the line. Perhaps it could be theirs??
Then what is the harm in saying so? People like to have a roadmap of product direction; Spectron loyalists might even put off a preamp decision if they knew something was coming.
Earlier this year when I was talking to Simon about a Spectron amp, he mentioned to me that they had a preamp in the works but didn't give a time schedule. It seems like it is firming up.
