Hi Ericngo1,
I also own MBL 101E's and have been on a very interesting journey trying this and that and learning over the years, one of the pre-amps I owned was the 6010d w/phono for three years. Personally I do not flavour the MBL's being driven with the MBL pre paired up with either 9008's or 9011's which I have had both.
I have had my paired up with numerous mono blocks, Boulder 2050's, Karan 1200's, Cat JL3 Sig MK2's, 9008's, 9011's, Bryston 28 squared just to name a few.
If you look threw my past threads you will read what I have been up too.
Personally I prefer tubes with the MBL's, the ultimate set-up that has gotten me off the merry-go-round is pairing up my MBL's up with the Vac Sig. MK2a pre w/phono and Vac's Statement 450 mono blocks.
Absolute heaven, nothing that I have owned or heard specifically paired up with these speakers comes close period, not in the same world.
So to answer your question in relation to the pre in the 6010d available, nothing special and would not recommend.
Normally I would send you a PM but due to this new site set-up won't allow that, don't want to ruffle any feathers of MBL electronic owners including your self but you appeared to be looking for assistance.
