Preamp for Plinius 8200p

What tube pre-amp goes well with a Plinius 8200p? Has anyone matched this amp with a Vandersteen 2Ce?

I've been told it'd be a good combination. I'm also considering a Belles 150A hotrod, a Musical Fidelity A3.2cr, and an Anthem hybrid. Anyway, the Rogue is nice, inexpensive and would probably sound good with the Plinius.

Two different osunds though. The Rogue to me was dark and slow, not a good match with the Vandersteens IMHO, but the BC may be perfect! -Vik
