Preamp to pair with Manley Snappers?

I currently have Sonic Frontiers Line 3 into Manley Snapper Monos or Atma-Sphere M60 Mk II.2, driving Silverline Sonatina IIIs. Audience Au24 balanced interconnects and speaker cable. Snapper monos clearly not as transparent as Atma-Sphere M60 Mk II.2s but more low end control. Other than the Atma-sphere MP3, are there other preamps that might deliver more mids than the SF Line 3 but still maintain bass and treble?

I'm waiting for my Manley Shrimp to be delivered. Check their web site if you can't find a dealer locally. I got two emails from Manley's pres. and two phone calls from their sale's manager within a day.

If you can do fully balanced from the source to preamp to amp you should get really nice sound. The only question is if you'll like listening to the resulting sound. If you're not doing fully balanced from source through to amp then I think that you (and I have in the past) will not see the benefit. Having said, I think that chasing the sound might be more satisfying than the electronic signal configuration (perhaps cheaper too). Good luck....
