Tube Preamp Recommendations

I’m looking to get a tube preamp in the near future. Budget is $1k, but might go up to $1.5k. The Freya+ is one that I’m considering. What else is out there in my price range? The preamp will be fed by a SMSL SU-9 DAC. My amp is an upgraded Quad 405, which I recently acquired, and the speakers are AR Classic Series 18.

Hum X didn't work.  Definitely on the hunt for a different tube preamp.

@georgegifi. I checked it out but I don't see how it would help.  I'm looking for a tube preamp that isn't overly noisy in my system.
