How about a bit more information?
Such as:
Budget?
Tube or solid state?
Is a fully balanced preamp required?
Does the remote control need to handle everything, or just volume and mute?
Without knowing the answers to the above questions, here are some candidates to check out:
Ayre K-1xe - (Solid State, balanced operation, great phono stage, however this particular preamp has just recently been discontinued).
(FYI, I own this preamp.)
Halcro DM 10 - Solid State, balanced operation, Reputed to be incredibly good, with a reference phono stage.
Atma-sphere MP-1 - (Tube, balanced operation, also reputed to be very good.)
Aesthetix Janus - (Tube, balanced operation, lots of features, might be a bit noisy with very low output MC cartridges, (however, I have heard that they have resolved that issue).
Those are a few that immediately come to mind.
