Looking for a preamp with remote for phone

I have a Plinius M14 phono preamp and need a preamp so I can listen to vinyl. I'm looking to spend around 1500.00 and must have remote control. Anybody got any suggestions? My CD setup can be run directly to my amps and I'm not looking to replace that. When I listen to vinyl I'm looking to plug up my preamp. I would love XLR outs also.

Thanks for your suggestions.

What is your power amplifier?
If it's sencitive with high gain and input impedance I would recommend Placette passive preamp with remote control.
Before going to expencive ~$1500 Placette you can experiment with Creek OBH14 input selector/remote volume that is 5x cheaper.

Marakanetz, i think that Bryans is looking for a full function preamp with a built in phono stage and a remote, not just something that gives him mode selection and a remote. The phono stage and associated equalization and gain could not be dealt with on a passive or line stage type of device without going to yet another box. Sean

My amps are Atma-Sphere MA1. I currently have a Plinius phono unit so I could get away with a line stage. Now if I can find a good preamp with phono that can work also. I'm leaning on keeping the Plinius unless I can find something better.
