If you can swing the cash, I'd highly recommend getting a CT4-DX. It's the best preamp Takamine makes, doesn't have a tube, and also has dual inputs. For just using the palathetic, the CT4BII is excellent, and I'd personally recommend it over any of the cooltubes.
Yes, my P5DC has the CTP-3 preamp. I'll put the CT4-DX on my short list. Thanks.
