Mark Levinson No.32 vs Mbl 6010d vs Bat Rex?


What is the best matching pre for my ML 33s?
I'm now using the Boulder 1010 which is very good but I want more dynamic, impact without loosing transparency, musicality and body.
Speakers are Nearfield Acoustic Pipedreams 18.

BAT Rex has very strong & powerful bass. That is its strong suit. Extremely dynamic and detailed. I compared it to the VTL 7.5 mk 2 which I ultimately preferred in my system. I found the highs to be smoother and the stage width to be wider (at the slight loss of depth) and the dynamics to be more realistic (actually less dynamic, but I felt the Rex to be "hyper dynamic"). I never did try the switch inside as preferred by some reviewers. My bias is for very smooth highs and detailed bass that is agile but without bloat.
Suchtan,

I hope you enjoy. A very different type of preamp w. the separate positive and negative power supplies. Let me know your experience after you have it set up.
