Preamp for Pass Labs XA30.5


Can't break the bank here but is there a solid or tube pre that might work well with this amp in the $2k range, new or used?

A Pass pre is a no brainer. The suggestion above of exchanging the amp for the integrated is worthy of consideration. What ever you do, be mindful of the XA30.5's somewhat low input impedance, and try to use a pre with true differential balanced outputs to maximize the Pass amps design considerations and full potential.
