What pre in the $500 pre owned market


I just picked up a Pass Aleph 60. I am looking for a pre owned pre amp to go with this amp, My system is as follows.

Audio Note CDT-1
Mccormack DAC-1 /w upgrades
Jupiter speakers. http://www.jupiter-audio.com/pages/europa.html
I also have xm hooked to this system through a separate DAC.
I am thinking about a quicksilver linestage.
Also thinking about a mccormack tlc 1 pre.
Not real high end but it suites my needs.
Any other pre amps I might want to consider?
Like I stated I am looking in the $500 rage , pre owned.
I also have a NAD C 541i HDCD Player hooked up so the wife can listen to her CD-R as I do not want her playing them on the Audio Note.

Thanks Brian

Pass designed Adcom GFP-750. Stereophile class A. Might stretch your budget a tad.
You can also keep an eye out for a McCormack Micro Line Drive. It has 3 inputs, a tape input and output, plus it has the advantage of being a passive and active preamp. The active side can be adjusted +/-3 dbs with jumper inside the unit. Another plus you can have a remote control added for the volume control, check with SMc Audio on this.
If you've never heard the difference between an active or passive preamp this is a great starter to help you decide which you prefer. These can be found well within your budget and it comes with the help of a very caring designer.
