What would be the best pre for inside and outside of the kick drum when it came to doing alternative rock music? My mic inside is either a Beta42 or MD421. My outside mic is either a U49 or a BLUE Bottle w/B6 capsule. I have a pair of Distressors and a LA2A.

Here are the pre's I'm thinking:

Great River MP-2NV (2) $2,150.00 (1) 1,075.00
Chandler LTD-1 (1) $2,100.00
Brent Averill 1272 (2) $1,659.00 (1) $989.00
Brent Averill 1073 (2) $4,500.00 (1) $2,350.00
Daking (1) $1,500.00

So I'm thinking the GR would be best cuz it also would make a great gtr pre..and **** it just seems like it's a pre I need to have. Or, I could go with a different pre for both inside and outside the kick. What would be your choice?
