    Check out the Anthem TLP-1 . This should satsify your requirements.

    Spastic--

    the only thing that "scared" me off of the Adcoms w/tuner was the listings on ebay I was seeing that had "preamp section works great, but tuner quit working." I'd wager that 40% of the Adcoms I saw had this comment. I don't know, maybe they've ironed-out the problems on later equipment. That was enough to keep me from going Adcom w/tuner.

    yeah faster pointed that out to me and have noticed that. Doesnt have to be Adcom but is preffered. Can always get a tuner rack if it were to go out. :)

    Forget Adcom active preamps altogether.

    Get THIS and add a tuner to fit your budget.

    Separates man, separates. A tuner REALLY needs its own power supply, and to be isolated from the amp / pre power supply.

    Go passive, and you'll never go back to a sand preamp again.

    Cheers,

    Paul, i was actually looking at this pre- the other day, but didnt really know what it was... Its a non powered pre i guess, passive... cool.. will you lose any volume from useing a passive compared to a regular pre-amp?
