Pre-amp with balanced suggestions?


I'm looking to add a pre-amp to my setup. I've been 100% computer audio for awhile, but have a turntable that I need to integrate now.

I need something with balanced in and out, and I don't need a phono stage in the pre (I have a nice outboard phono pre).

I'm looking for something under $3000 used, transparency, detail, and holographic imaging are my priorities. Something that adds color is not what I want, just neutral and clean.

So what might you suggest?

Many great suggestions, here, Vapor1. Having personally owned BAT gear -- I can recommend it. A manufacturer not mentioned is Jeff Rowland...I own a Consummate and believe vintage JRDG sound excellent :-)

Have fun,
Sam
