Who makes great active preamps ? Tube or solid state or hybrid.

It appears, it is not Pass, Rowland, even Lamm etc. Who then ?
I heard about Ypsilon, though some say it is a little bright and forward sounding.

CAT also makes an excellent preamp. I have heard all in a system I am intimately familiar with or my home system. What is your listening experience with Pass, Rowland and Lamm?
