Need help with a Tube PREAMP.

I currently use a Solid State 2 channel AMP with an Input of 20k(unbal) 40k(bal). I am looking for a great Tube PreAmp for around $2500 that would mate well with the AMP. any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

This one has the Upgrades too ..Tube 5AR4 rectifier and MW/caps. Should help give it a little more tube sound. I wont get the unit til the 26th..sooo I'm biting my finger nails. I havent had anything close to a good sounding pre amp in a long time.

Have you checked out the Rogue Audio Perseus preamp? It has given new life to my system. It is a good value at around $1895.00. IMO, Rogue Audio makes great stuff for the price

I think you will be very happy with the ModWright 9.0. Especially with the tube power supply and OIMP caps. The ModWright gear always sounds good and with the upgrades you have in your unit, you will have a bit more of that tube sound.
Enjoy.

WOW its amazing to me what a preamp does to the system.This Modwright is very stout. It drives my solid state amp no problem. It sounds so much sweeter than the prima luna and with a huge wide soundstage and great seperation. The Tone of my system is so much better, way more texture and colors. Im just using stock tubes too!
