Preamp upgrade opinion...

thinking of upgrading from a Levinson No. 28 preamp w/phono to something else. I currently own a Pass Labs x250 amp and my musical tastes range from rock to reggae with an occasional jazz piece. I'm not certain a tube preamp would fit the bill (please correct me if I am wrong!!!). Currently use XLR inputs and outputs in my current setup and could probably go with RCA's if need be with a future preamp. What could I possibly purchase in the <3k market with something a little newer. The phono option would be nice but not mandatory. Let's discus. Regards. J~

BAT stuff kicks. They over build. Good resale and strong performer.
Balanced keeps the noise that you can't hear down. Lets the music through. Good luck.

For what it is worth, I tried a Pass X350 with my Primia Luna Dialogue Premium and thought is sounded good, if a bit polite for my taste.

I have actually decided on an Atma-Sphere MP-3. I have been patiently lurking around to find a second-hand unit. They seem to be VERY hard to come by.
