Budget Pre with 2outputs, rectifier tube and.....

Hello guys, I'm looking for a used budget tube pre with a rectifier tube, ht bypass and as stated 2 outputs. I've looked at Dennis Had's AES DJH but doesn't have the ht bypass, budget is about $800, maybe I'm asking for too much at that price. But that's why I come here for solutions. thanks in advance.

Consonance T1 gz34 rectified 4 inputs 2 outputs. Point to point wiring auri theta caps,class A circuit. With upgraded tubes this preamp outperformed a very popular highly rated $4500.00 pre in sound quality . Was a/b tested with group of knowledgeable piles and dealer.

I think when he says that 'tube rectification rules' , he means that it is the best...the ruler of the kingdom . Not that there are any rules of the game .

I had a DJH for a few years. It doesn't have HT bypass, but it was one of the best sounding preamps I've ever heard.
