Decent preamp


I didn't say good because I'm in the budget but what's a decent preamp I could buy to work with Aragon 2004 amp? I'm thinking tube but let me know your opinions. Was advised to stay away from emotiva and other factory direct brands but not sure if that's a valid opinion.

why are you attracted to tube preamps?

you don't really provide enough info to allow a useful recommendation

what you are getting here are random shoutouts for what people think are decent or what they own

have no idea what will apply to you
