State of the art remote pre amp? Reality?

Is there a remote controlled pre out there that will compete with all of the non remote pre's like the Red Rose or the First Sound? Has anyone compared in the same system one of the CJ art pre's to these? I know there has to be something out there with remote that is as good but, I have yet to hear it. I know this will garner a lot of responses as there are a lot of high dollar remote pre's out there but please-we are talking state of the art here! The hi fi mags and there recommended components dont know or dont care about ultimate sound anymore-this is obvious-so lets not mention all of the hype. Thanks Scott
