Reasonably priced preamplifier


At some point in the future, I would like to own a preamplifier from either CH Precision or Soulution but looking at their prices, I do not think that it is going to happen soon. So, until such time, I wanted to ask from experienced users here if there are preamplifiers within 7-8k (used) range that are different from the herd and can provide similar kind of performance that CH or Soulution provides?

 7-8k is probably a high end amplifier not a reasonably priced one. Of course, if it's made of gold....

The Artic audio is a good recommendation, if you want something really different try the Space tech lab preamp that uses 845 tubes.

I have a 30K system and love my Audio-GD HE-1 XLR ..10 tube preamp with it's own regenerative power supply. $4500...a steal !
