Bat with non balanced pramps?

I have been looking around for a preamp to mate with my vk60 monoblocks and alot of the pre's I have been reading of and concidering are single ended designs.
I am currently using a solid state piece (Arc ls-10) .As I am running balanced from pre To amp's I am wandering what sonic cons should I concider before purchasing a joule,hovland,kora,ect........
Thanx,
Sreno

I agree again that a BAT pre would be better then most other for similar money. I used an Accuphase DC-300 pre going to my VK-60, I tried both balanced and single ended out into the VK-60(using those little adaptors that plug into the back of the amp XLR's) I found that as long as a product is truly balanced(ala BAT, some Accuphase-mine was balanced) it sounds better balanced. The BAT web page covers this in there FAQ section I believe check it out www.balanced.com
