???Phono Preamp for Rega RP3 W/Elys2 ????

Just purchased a Rega RP3 with Elys2 and looking for reccomendations for a decent preamp. My system includes the following;
Paradigm Studio 100 mains and servo sub
Parasound preamp
Theta Dreadnaught Amp
Kimber Kable thruout.
Have been searching on line for suggestions. Currently considering Jolida jd9, Cambridge Audio 651p, and a few others. Tube vs SS??? Prefer to keep around the $500 ballpark. Thank you all for your opinions. Im a vinyl virgin and a bit nervous diving in.

I really like the ProJect TubeBoxII. I have no idea if you will like it or not.

Both Jolida (owned this one) and Cambridge phono pres are good choices, as is the Musical Fidelity V LPS (home auditioned).

A bit more than you are looking to spend - but as always you get what you pay for.
