Budget Tube Preamp with Remote

I need a preamp with remote. My system is Adcom GFA 545ii; JM Labs Daline 3.1; Moon Audio 100D Dac; Onkyo NDs-1. I was interested in trying tubes. I'm replacing an Adcom GTP 400, and was thinking of something warmer. I listen primarily to classical and jazz. I would like to keep the cost below $600. Would an integrated amp such as a Jolida (using only as a preamp) make sense? Thanks very much.

Using the Jolida Int. as a preamp would make no sense. It is virtually an amplifier with a Alps volume control. You would only be using the volume control as your preamp and would get no effect from the tubes.

You could use the Jolida or another tube integrated and do away with your amp. Tubes for the amp will definately give you the tube sound also.
