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.

That'''s very helpful, Larry. The main reason I put the no.32 on the list is their very fine ergonomics and conveniences. I also found the no. 33 a little dull or may I say "polite" but I think I solved that problem now by replacing all the caps with Blackgate caps throughout as well as the op-amps.
Now any body can tell me about he BAT REX vs MBL 6010d?
Thank you very much for your sharing. What did the MBL sound like without the proper break in? Did it sound bright or anything?
Anybody could comment on the BAT REX especially the bass region?
Thanks Dgad for your kind opinion. I have finally decided on the Bat Rex due to a very good deal and the unit is 220v version which I need. If you say the Rex is hyper dynamic that's also good for me since my present pre, the Boulder 1010 is lacking. The VTL 7.5 mkII is also interesting but it's very hard to find and the used price much higher than Bat.
Dgad, I just clicked in to look at your system and it's awesome. Congratulations.
