WANTED. Pre amp for my 211 power amp.

[phoenixpete]

I have been using one of my Beresford dacs as a pre amp in my system and it was fine, slightly lacking in punch and sparkle, in other words a bit polite?
I have a Morgan audio Deva integrated which can be used as a Pre amp and this is now running in my system. This is so much better than the Beresford i think. Much more lively and detailed. So looking for something that will be at least as good as the Morgan but have no idea what will suit?? Would be nice to have remote volume control. Any ideas and suggestions would be great. Not sure on budget but not unlimited.
Cheers
Pete.
