Which pre should I choose?

I have an Accuphase A47 to drive my Dynaudio Coutour 1.3SE. I want to choose a pre-amp to match my power amp. and the speaker system. I prefer classical music. My room is not big. But I like warm and sound with thickness. Do you have good suggestion? How about Ayre's K1XE or Audio Research R2 MKII?

" buy and old counterpoint SA-2000 and change a few of the caps and resistors and your in business."

I don't know about that one. Preamps have improved a lot since those things were in production. At 25+ years old its probably classified as vintage. With a budget of 3k, why bother?

But the new Accuphase such as C2420 are quite expensive. It costs about US$8000 here in Taipei.  This gear has few review in everywhere.
