Preamp to use with Quad 909 Amp


I just purchased a Quad 909 amplifier. I need to get rid of my Cary tube amp for child safety reasons. (Currently listed for sale!) I was thinking of purchasing the matching preamp (Quad 99) to use with it.

I would like a preamp with built in phono and remote control. I already have Aragon and PSE preamps, but neither have remote control. I would like to spend $1,000 or less.

I want to know if anyone has alternate suggestions, meeting these requirements, that they have heard with the Quad 909. If you have comments on the 99/909 combination I would like to hear those also.

My system is posted so please take a look at the related components.

Thanks for your advice and information. This is a great forum.

Years ago I used Quad 606 with a Jeff Rowland Consonance Preamp. I did like it very much.
That preamp sounds very good and has all you need, the phono section is adjustable.
Still own the 606, now my lovely wife uses it with a 66 preamp and a 67 Cd Player.
