Preamp advice

I currently have an electrocompaniet ec 4.7 preamp.

Iam looking to upgrade to a more holographic preamp without breaking the bank.

Speakers: Wilson Sasha, Martin Logan SL3, Magnepan 3.5R

Amp: Krell KSA 200S

Source: Consonence Droplet Vinyl with Lyra Kleos SL

Ideally something used.

Happy to hear recommendations.

(Been twice, love, love, love your country/people) The above (sage) remark wasn’t sarcastic but I am cynical and given to sarcasm but not on these fora. Try me ;-)‼️No don’t. Most recommend PRE’s are above $1500 in the currency of your choice.
