Best Pre-amp for the McCormack DNA-1 Deluxe

I'm getting the itch for another upgrade. I currently am running a tubed Conrad Johnson PV10 (with phono) and B&W 805 Nauts. The room is 15 X 35...I'm waiting for a Rel Strata sub.

Is their a better mate for my current pre-amp and speakers at the $600-$1000 level. I do need a phono amp for my turntable, and I would consider buying separate equipment for this, so it doesn't have to be integrated in the Pre-amp.

I run a hot rodded passive with my DNA 1. There are many good passives on the market, just depends on your budget and tastes. Mine uses the top of the line TKD stepped attenuator. Steve McCormack himself builds passive and active pre's.

I use EAR 834p for seperate phono stage. I had the EAR modded also and use Amperex Bugle Boy tubes and a single Sylvania 5751 triple mica in it. Love the sound!!!!
