Best 6NS7 Preamp for a Pass Labs XA25 amp

Will need a remote.
No SCHITT Kit.
There must be a couple happy XA25 Amp owners out there?

I am very pleased with it. I am considering the XA25 as a SS amp to replace my BEL1001 when the time comes. Aric's preamps are all tube rectified, regulated, with 6sn7 output stage. They have variable gain, low output impedance (300 ohms), and high input impedance (100K ohms).
