budget balanced pre amp, tube or SS?


I now have option of balanced power on amps and wonder if there a budget options on pre amps, something that would work well with Classe power and VMPS speaker that are pretty revealing so any ideas would great, thanks! I am useing Sonic Frontiers SFL1 hybrid pre now, rock and classical music.....Lexicon and Sota/Dynavector sources.

I've been using a Marsh P2000b for years and find it to be very transparent and revealing but at the same time refined so it doesn't go too far. Thought that might be a good match for your system and I think it's under $1500 new. Here's a review from TAS although it's on the single-ended model, which is the same except lacks balanced connections:

Soundstage and Stereo Times reviewed the balanced version, FYI.

Best of luck.
