Need new pre amp


Back in 1992 I bought a new bryston 4b sst amp and a linn pretek  preamp my preamp gave out and the left channel is toast. Now i have a rel s/510 and a pair of dyn audio special 40 speakers . Now I have a linn lp12 sondeck turn tabel with a linn adikt  cartridge  I play a lot of vynal as well as stream quobus or listen to my cd's I have a tascam ss-cdr1  and a blue tooth reciever that picks up from my phone and sends it to the preamp now am I best to have the preamp repaired or go with a new preamp. And do I go tube or sold  state I am looking for a warm organic sould because of vynal and if I go new pre amp I want xlr out to the amp at least 2 xlr inputs 4 rca analog input and 2 digital inputs phono input would be nice but not required  I can get a phono preamp  if needed thank you Mal11963

I recommend a Bryston .5 preamp to match your Bryston amp. I have the .5 preamp to use with my Bryston 3B amp. No XLR outputs though. XLR for home use is not any better than RCA. 

Consider Audio Research LS or Ref series if you want tubes and XLR. No phono stage though. 

McIntosh makes solid state and tube based pre amps that will have XLR and RCA all the INS and outs you could ever need.
