Best Tube Preamp for JC-1 Monoblocks?

Hello all,
I have become interested in tube preamps to try out with my Parasound Halo JC-1 monoblock amps.
Based on current or previous owners experiences with using tube preamps with the JC-1's, which tube preamps seem to match up the very best with the JC-1's without giving up much, if any, the dynamics, top-end extension, and bass qualities of solid-state preamps?
Thanks for your responses in advance.

Thanks all your responses, guys!
I appreciate them all.
So the JC-2 will probably not be ready until 2006?

Bob,
Will the JC-2 preamp not be available until 2006?
I thought it would be early Fall of 2005.
Why are there so many delays on it?

Audio_girl, as far as I know no date has been set for introduction of the JC-2 since it is still in development and getting the details worked out for production takes time. Early '06 probably is realistic, although late '05 may be possible. In any event it's something to look forward to.

Hey Audio Girl, no delays on the JC-2 at all, but things do not happen overnight and think we will be lucky to have the unit sorted out by and in production by the end of the year.......
