Help with upgrading Pre Amp

Hello fellow A-gons i have been in search for a new Pre Amp. I have been rebuilding my system for seven years after a total lose to Hurricane Katrina in 2005. I currently own custom:
Custom Cd Player by Richard Gray
Infinity Pre Amp
Coda CSX Amp High End
Aragon Palladiums Low End
Infinity Epsilon 
Morrow MA-7 Balanced
2-RGPC 400's
RGPC pole Pig
RGPC power cords Platinum over copper
RGPC Skeaker Wires Bi-wired
Still working on upgrade Amps at another time would like to try a new Pre Amp looking At Pass X-20, Rouge, Bryston, CJ etc
any suggestions without breaking the Bank?

Best Regards 
Larry

I second the RP-5. Very versatile. Tape/eq loop, phone than can be switched to a regular input, mono switch. Every function can be controlled with remote control. I plan on upgrading tubes next year, but stock JJ's sound fine. A Rogue rep told me that the RP-1 is 85% of the RP-5 and a bit cheaper.

Wyred 4 Sound STP-SE Stage 2 pre is incredible. I used to have a Pass XP-20 & the STP-SE Stage 2 is way better.

@infection,
It is hard to believe that the STP-SE Stage 2 beats Pass XP-20, especially considering the price difference and the Pass reputation. I am not denying your experience; just very curious and can't believe it, considering the Pass brand. What is the rest of your system?
