Preamp under $2,000.

Looking for a preamp under $2k. Found a great deal on a Rotel RC-1590 open box for $1,199. Anyone with experience with them?

I found one for $1,500. I have an M6 phono preamp that is fantastic. It seems to get good reviews.

I am between it and A Rogue RP5. The AR is older but in good shape. Both tube. Does one stand above the other??

Supposed to be excellent, Under a grand tube hybrid. I think they are enjoying a surge in sales and there is a wait on products. I am waiting for my Raganok integrated. My Sciit has been backed up several weeks.
