Preamp for manley snappers

I am in search for a preamp without phono stage for my manley snappers. I have tried audible illusions,art audio,first sound and tron seven and VTL 6.5. They were all lent to me for audition by friends. Of all the units i auditioned it is only the 6.5 that had me smiling but the price is just so expensive i have to look somewhere else. My budget is around 4k dollars. Friends suggested the modwright 9.0 or the 36.5 but i dont have access to any demos of these units. Any suggestions are welcome.

Jumbo Shrimp and Snappers are an excellent pairing. On day three of this recent upgrade.

I had my Snappers hooked up to a CJ CT-5. Worked very well
together and its in your price range too. The Manley 300B
would also be near the top of my list. I never got to hear one
in my system but if it sounds even half as good as it looks
you'll have a winner.
