Tube Line Stage around $5k


Thinking of replacing my Conrad Johnson Classic 2 SE.    Its a great sounding preamp but I've had it since '13 and am looking for something with remote.   Dual pre-outs a must .   Volume only remote is fine but volume and source would be ideal.  Thanks.

Thanks again  for suggestions,  I bought a NIB original Zesto Leto for a good price.  Has everything I could want , dual RCA out two XLR in and dual XLR out , remote , HT bypass.  

at 5K would be looking for a used VTL TL6.5 series I or maybe a series II for a touch more....pretty tough to beat at that price pt. 

I paid a lot less than $5k for the Zesto. It is six + years old but I'm gonna roll the dice with it being new , sealed box ,  Sorry but I would never buy another VTL again, especially used....   horrible customer service

Received the Zesto Leto and have been listening a few days.  Incredible sounding,  dynamic but has great detail,  rhythm and pace.   Actually sounds like I got a whole new system, it's staggering.     I needed a little help from Zesto and they are first class all the way.   Its great that I can use balanced gear with it too.  Best bass of any preamp I've used  or owned .  Amazing clarity....  zero self noise.  Hit pause and turn it up louder than you would normally listen and still, black dark silence . Worth every penny .
