The Audio Research Sp-4 is a classic, though not one of the famous ARC. It would hold it's value nearly forever.
Another preamp to look for is a Hafler DH110. The RCA jacks on the back are dirt cheap, but the electronics in it are decent, and at $150 bucks is a decent product.
Not many (In recent memory) preamps have tone controls..
