Looking for a tube preamp with remote control.


Although I am very happy with my modified (with Teflon caps) Conrad-Johnson PV 11 preamp, I need to replace it with a tube preamp with remote control due to my current lack of mobility.
I’m looking to spend no more than $3000. The preamp needs to have a phono.input.
I’m matching it with a Benchmark amplifier.
Any suggestions?

I would be interested in hearing what your impressions are after you have implemented it and listened for a while. As Elliott pointed out this violates the  fundamental principle of introducing no extra functions in the signal path. I tried a high end manual switch box about 40 years ago… that had big negative impact on the sound. Be interested to hear if the technology has improved.
