need balanced tube preamp used

Hey guys, I used to have Neo 500 and was not too happy with them, I used them through McIntosh MCD1100 sacd/  preamp  and obviously that was a big problem, now I have Manley 240's and Jadis DPL and I am very happy. I need replace Jadis because of the brum noise from my Tannoy Westminsters, I need balanced preamp, any sugestions? Jadis sounds great, maybee Jadis JPS8? Or perhaps McIntosh 2500? I like to spend up to $6000 for used. Any sugestion for some great preamp?

Hi RCPrince

 As another option to consider, the Musica Bella Lusso preamp is available for half the retail price here on AudioGon and should meet all your requirements and more.

The ARC preamplifiers are really terrific.

i agree with ralph.

i am amazingly happy owner of atma-sphere mp-3mkiii pre coupled with m-60 mono-blocks. fully balanced. and amazingly happy means i am done trying to improve components--and am back to spending money on just collecting music (well, as soon as i complete my synergistic research power cable, interconnect, speaker cable, tesla powercell campaign). 

and ralph gives great advice. and amazing customer support, too. 

and made in usa.
