What would be good preamp to run McCormick dna1

Back when I was on the equipment merry-go-round and was switching stuff in and out regularly, I found that I quite enjoyed the sound of a Wyred 4 Sound StP-SE preamp when paired with McCormack amplification. In fact, I sometimes think about returning to that setup.

Agree with a Tube Preamp, but not a lean sounding one that sounds like SS. With the DNA 1 w/MG3a’s you need a preamp to wake things up. Plenty nice affordable preamps out there and I bring it up every time because for the money I still think it’s The King; Modwright SWL 9.0 SE has PRAT. The little Modwright has a basic remote too. If you don’t care about a remote and on a budget, older Conrad and Johnson preamps are very nice. 

Hafler DH110. Excellent SQ! Available often for less than $200.

Another good budget choice is the PS Audio 4. I have two! Quite affordable!

I'm driving a recently completely upgraded DNA-1.0 with a Mark Levinson Model 26 preamp. The results are very good. My speakers are a pair of restored German Physiks Borderlands MK1 which like high current SS.
