i do use two multi channel pre amps at the moment, both of which have their own applications and are totally different in their sound:

Sebatron vmp4000, 4 channel tube mic pre and
millennia media hv-3d 8 channel hi voltage mic pre

the Sebatron has its own distinctive sound which is very nice on voice and vocals, as well as on some other instruments such as saxophones, bass etc.

the millenia is great for recording classical music since it's as close to a cable with up to 80db gain as you can get. absolutely no coloration.

i can recommend both for their respective applications.
