You should also consider the deHavilland UltraVerve. It did wonders for my system. And retails for $2,495 new. Many great reviews to check out regarding it also. Good luck.

Cheers
A pre-owned First Sound Presence Deluxe mkII would be right around your price range. Fantastic sonics and huge bang for the buck, along with tremendous support from Emmanuel Go (he's in WA state).
Used Placette Active for ~$2000.. it will amaze you but it will be single ended.. You might consider a balanced preamp as your JC-1's are fully balanced. Maybe a Pass Labs X1 with the older power supply
If you want to stay SS I'll 2nd the Pass X1, if you want tubes the Sonic Frontiers Line 3 is phenomenal and right at that price point... be aware it is very revealing and not tubey by any old standards... but it is exceptional. Also the BAT 30 series may interest you .Good listening.
Wright Sound Lab WPL20. A highly linear and dynamic linestage alloyed to a simply superb phono section. There is one available for under a grand. A screaming good deal.
