Reasonably Priced PreAmp without Phono ?

If you don't need more than two inputs, how about the Shanling PH3000 headphone amp? Tube-based but wide bandwidth (spec'd out to 100KHz), with two line inputs and a pair of line outputs, 2 Neutrik headphone jacks, and an ALPS pot, all for $399.

I'm sorely tempted by this piece myself.

Johnny,
I also need to run hdmi cable to my plasma.

Johnny,
Sorry I meant I have it hooked to a plasma.

I'll also chime in on the Quicksilver gear.
I bought a Remote Control Linestage from reputable dealer over 4 years ago that was available from a trade in. I have never had a problem as well.
Customer service is top notch as well.
