Hi
Just joined the forum.  I am looking for advice on a preamp to match with an old Classe 70 Poweramp.  I was using a passive preamp (QED) - effectively a volume control that has now completely packed up.  Ideally I would like a Classe 30 pre but these seem difficult to come by.  Is it worthwhile to wait for a 30 pre to come up for sale?  The last one seems to have come through the forum about 3 years ago.  Can anyone suggest some reasonable options?

I am happy with the Poweramp sound. It has very good midrange & tops but is slightly bass shy.  The speakers are Linn Helix's which match the poweramp well.  The inputs are a Marantz 63KI and a Mede8er media player.
