Opinions on preamps


I am considering upgrading my pre amp. My system is as follows:
Sonic Frontiers SFL2
VAC Renaissance 70 MKlll
Klyne 7 PX3.5 phono
Verity Parsifal Encores
Basis Debut
Graham 2.0
Clearaudio Accurate
Dedicated room with much attention to details (wires, set up, isolation)

The weak link in my system is the SFL2 preamp. I am considering the following:
BAT 30SE
BAT 50SE
Wyetech Opal
Hovland
Emotive Sira

Anyone familiar with these items.
Your thoughts would be greatly appreciated

Thank You

Try the Placette active. No gain, as transparent and clear as all get-out, but no "tube sound". Seriously, I think this may well get you exactly what you are looking for, unless you are married to having tubes in the preamp position.

I also second the First Sound suggestion.
