Help selecting a new preamp

Thanks, reading about it now.!

Is a used preamp an option?

What are you looking to improve upon over your current preamp, and what overall sound reproduction characteristics are most important to you?  Are you looking for tubes or solid state, or either?

  I want to replace my Outlaw Audio 976 preamp with a stereo only preamp

You can trial a Schiit Freya for a couple of weeks, they are so versatile, best mechanical volume control going around, let's you select between tube, solid state in active modes, and you can go strait passive with it as many have found and liked.
It's also got remote and xlr or rca inputs and outputs.

or to save $300 just the solid state and passive Freya

Thanks all for suggestions....I'm looking to simplify and improve sound quality over my existing preamp.  I originally wanted to switch video with audio and the Outlaw had great reviews and it was priced reasonably.  But, I've had problems with the preamp and Outlaw was at times difficult to deal with.  Also, at 65 and long days working sound reinforcement  in my youth I'm not sure that I would be able to discern audio differences between the top tier preamps.  Simplicity, minimal signal path are goals...Grateful for all the help I'm receiving..
