Herron vs PS Audio BHK vs Rogue Preamps
I’d just add confusion and suggest that Backert, Linear Tube Audio, and Sachs would also be worth a look among others.  
Preamp under $2,000.
What sound characteristics are you looking for?  What are you using now? 
Upgrade to my system - Speakers maybe
Joseph Audio Pulsars are definitely worth a listen.   
Low profile CC speaker that is good sounding
If that doesn’t violate the WAF that’s absolutely what I’d do.  You’d probably need to angle the speaker downward somewhat to aim the tweets more toward your ears, but that’s not a biggie.  I think if you go with one of Paradigm’s better centers w... 
Please recommend new headphones for listening to Qobuz on iPhone
looking for clarity, soundstage, cymbals that sound like cymbals instead of like, well, like tin cans.Another vote for HifiMan.  I was looking for the same things, and I play drums so I’m very sensitive to how cymbals are reproduced.  I’m using th...

i had my earth frequency portable wireless device i invented that runs 100% on the earth natural electromagnetic gridDoes this device involve a DeLorean? 
Best Speakers for a small Nearfield room, budget at most $10000 (used is also ok)

Integrated Amp suggestions to go with Gallo Nucleus Reference III?
Given what your looking to accomplish, I think a hybrid integrated makes a lot of sense.  The Pharaoh is great, but I don’t know that it’ll give you the warmth you’re looking for.  I had the Medusa (basically the amp section of the Pharaoh I think... 
Looking for new speakers
Agree with others you likely have a problem somewhere.  If you still have your old amp or can borrow one I’d definitely try that to rule out the Luxman as even new gear can have issues, and it sounds like you didn’t have this distortion problem un... 
Partly passive preamp?
There’s a Placette passive pre on US Audio Mart for $1400 that has three inputs and is about as transparent as it gets.I’d also highly recommend a Bryston BP-6, which I owned for years, that is active but is the epitome of the term “straight wire ...

Why are you shouting at us? 
Integrated Amp suggestions to go with Gallo Nucleus Reference III?
What sound characteristics do you value most, and what are you looking to improve upon over what you have now? 
Great Intergated amp with great built in DAC
There’s a Hegel H360 integrated on US Audio Mart for $3250 ($5700 retail) that delivers what you’re looking for sonically and includes a good DAC as well.  Pair that with some Joseph Audio Profiles ($7000/pr) or even LSA 20 Statements (discounted ...
