You might consider Power Modules. Huge dampening factor very good sound and low pricing. They will definitely change the sound of your bass. http://www.powermodules.com/index.html 
The great myth of the XlR
Jafox Sorry guys to interrupt!!! Not kidding at all. Now that I am in my 60's I have given up the fantasy or should I say the "hype". I just want music to sound like live music. I gave up being a would be reviewer and analyzing details. If you ha... 
Tube Preamps...I'm sold
I think there is a deHavilland Mercury on audiogon. Not balanced though, balanced means more circuitry which is what you don't like about solid state. Chech out their website.

Art Audio Carissa vs Cary SLI-80
You would get more bang for your buck if you went with other speakers. See if you can find a pair of Harbeth's. A livelier speaker to be sure. Keep you coincidents and compare the two, keep the one you like.
