Who sells middle budget pre amps?

My budget is about 400$ maybe more of course.

the only music store around where i live is guitar center. (lets not use this thread to start telling guitar center nightmare stories)

Guitar center has audiogram3's, m-audio "boxes, cute little mini tube comes with cubase type preamps. And then of course they have the avalon and neve for 2-3 grand.


but what about me? I have a passion for quality. I'm fed up with my 16 bit interface. I have a real nice mic and it deserves a nice channel strip pre amp.

But i can't afford the avalon. Where are the middle budget preamps?

I wanna hear them before purchase but if that is not possible what are some preamps that you have heard that you would reccomend i look up on the internet.


Also, is 4-500$ enough money to cross the quality threshold?
