For a low cost but very capable option I can recommend Myryad's Z40 headphone pre. It has 3 inputs, 2 headphone sockets and a pre out. Doesn't come with remote. but will work with Marantz remotes.
A few people on here are familiar with it and also rate it highly. Not being made any more, but there might be a few used examples about. Plenty of info online.
I have had one for about 3 years now and I think it's great VFM. I'm not not using it any time soon (using an integrated) so you are welcome to borrow it and its Marantz remote long(ish) term till you get sorted.
Edit: this is not a sales pitch, I will never sell it, oh no
