Valve Analog Preamp, tla audio only decent option on budget? Options

[pixelboy]

Hi there
I´m creating dance music basically on my PB G4 with Logic 7, Live and Soft synths.
I´m locking for a decent valve front end that allows me to do preety much the works, guitar, mic, warming up signal to connect to my emi since I feel as tha need for some unstable analog harmonics to be added to my signal.

The thing is that I cant find a decently priced valve preamp, I am thinking of TLA as friends tell me its good, the thing is that most of them have also compresser and eq, and probably I wont be using it (I preffer plug-ins).
So basically I want a good sinal warmer (pardon for the english) that allows me to add that extra something valve thing until overdrive

Any good sugestions?
Thanks

Hey There

Thats the things I´m going for warming up sgnals, either from the mac or guitars and vocal (and whatever really)
I´ve been thinking of getting a tla Ivory 5060, It has presets wich makes it quicker for a quick recording, has some eq, compressor and valves.
It seems a versatily all in one channelstrip and aparently can warm up the signal in an analog valve way, It also has the option of a digital out wich is quite nice to plug into my emagic emi 6|2 using the digital converters of better quality (I imagine).
What do u think of this option (Its like the top I can spend and I´m really stretching my budget)

Thanks
