8 channel mic pre's

[simone]

I too am bringing up the mic pre subject again...however I am looking for an 8 Channel mic pre. Nothing fancy just something that I can use with my 001 as well as a Echo Layla Laptop live rig. Something rackmountable, reliable, that doesn't add noise. I am wondering if anyone has comments or any experience with any of the following:

Arx 8-Pre (a little on the high end for what I am looking to spend, I'd like to keep it under $300-4400)

Save up an extra $200 and get a Digimax LT. Very flexible with both analog and digital outputs (if you wire up the inserts correctly). Very good conversion as well. One of my best purchases last year.
