Looking for a new preamp Max $5k

Op  because effective analog tone controls are expensive and eq is much better done digitally most manufacturers dont employ them

Also proper eq that doesn’t srew up the musics balance is mpossible with just two tone  controls,  a recording  studio had many  bands of Eq so you can make a judicious correction. Without screwing it up

If you dont have e nnough bass  add a subwoofer 

If you don't have enough clarity, change the loudspeakers, or evaluate your entire chain are you using good cables, power conditioning, a good source, older vintage components?

If you are using digital adxd Roon to a computer and Roon comeswith a built in EQ and digital upsampling and dsd so you can add eq in a transparent manner

For the kind of money you’re willing to spend you can get a great preamp but if analogue is your love, you’re much better served getting a great dedicated phono preamp to go along with the main preamp.  They can make a huge difference compared to anything “built in” to a preamp. 
adding tuner capabilities makes you looking for something you’re far better off getting in a streamer which you can always add later. 
my all tube preamp has neither tone nor balance controls and I’ve never missed them. (Primaluna evo 400).  

Im very happy with Topping D90 preamp also look into Ladder Bache II; all reviewed on YTV sold through Amazon with $$$ back

Check out TMR and look over their vast amount of used equipment.  You might be surprised.
