best preamp for 501's


I will be using ( just purchased, not delivered)501 monoblocks. Have maggie 3.6's, musical fidelity a5 cd player and a michell gyro se turntable. Out of the c46, c2200 or c2300 how do these pair with the 501's. I am amazed ay the varying opinions between the 2200 and 2300. I hear some say that the 2300 is lean sounding, while others say the exact opposite. I prefer a balance of detail and warmth. Your thoughts would be appreciated.

No 501s but auditioned different preamps using MC275.

Started with the C46 and loved the open sound with details. The EQ was a bonus to help make adjustments.

Auditioned C2300 with MC275 and felt like the synergy was their with the details and warmth. Since I listen to instrumental music the details from cymbals decaying and strings playing bass guitar are very clear.
