preamp to mate with McCormack DNA 1

Hello all

Looking for a good solid state preamp ($1000 used) with remote that will mate well with the McCormack DNA-1 amplifier. Intend to drive Vandersteen 3A signatures.

Thanks

Both models are remote controlled, it's not an option. The difference is the Passive has three inputs standard and the RVC has one input. The Passive new is $1400, used generally $800-$1000. RVC is $1000 new and $600-$700 used. I don't think you will find a better sounding unit for the price, and the remote is a bonus.

I picked up mine used locally, but still think it's a good value at list price. I thought the Bent Audio passive was more expensive than that. I've been hearing a lot of good about that one also.
