Can you recommend a good Pre-Amp for my audio system?

I have Joseph Audio speakers and NAD receiver. My existing old PS Audio pre-amp is at end of life. I mainly listen to vinyl records and CD’s and sometimes cassette tapes on my system.

Without having to splurge, what is a good replacement pre-amp would you audiophiles recommend that would do the job?

Much appreciated.

Just got a trade-in deal from PSAudio - they took back my old PS audio 5.0 Pre-Amp from prehistoric ages and gave me a straight 30% discount ($500) on their $1699 PSAudio Stellar Gain Cell DAC which not only replaces but upgrades me to Digital. 

@Mesch,The Joseph Audio speakers I have are fantastic. The model is RM22XL 

I really appreciated everyone’s feedback.

Why not stick with PS Audio if you have been happy with your current preamp?

The Belles Aria preamp. Has the rich liquid midrange of a tube preamp
that would take the Joseph speakers to a higher level of sound quality.

I should mention that I own a Schiit Freya and my only complaint is that the LEDs are too bright (as was the one on the Loki)…at least before I carefully hit 'em with a sharpie to dim them a little. Don't tell Schiit…it could void my warranty.
