Philipwu, I have to agree with Lenny here. If a preamp is competent, it will not matter what type of music you play. I suspect you are looking for something with good bandwidth and detail but if a preamp is competent it will provide those things.
So the Nagra is a contender if it can drive your amplifier comfortably without loss of bass. It is that latter issue that is a concern if you are using a transistor amp. Some transistor amps have lower input impedance values (!0K being typical); this coupled with some tube preamps (ARC for example) will result in less bass. To that end I would compare the output impedances of your contenders; those that have more than 1K at 20Hz would be out if you have a transistor amp as in the example I gave.
Happy New Year!
