US made, integrated tube preamp able to handle KT150 tubes?

I know that foreign made can still be excellent equipment, but I like the idea of support being "local". No offense...

Suggestions? Preferably less than $5000

Customized units are available as well if more gain, more inputs or a remote are needed. Feel free to contact me with any questions. Thanks for the mention! Best wishes,Aric

BTW, this is the best tube rig I've ever owned and in the past, the others were much pricier

I am amazed how these EL34 tubes drive my TAD ME-1 speakers at 85db 4 ohm as loud as I can stand.
