Hi everybody.
Just wanted to ask if you could advice me on getting a good preamp (up to 200$ range, maybe a little more, most likely will by it used off ebay) for tracking vocals in my home studio. Currently we have several SM 58, SM 57, but I think Shure SM7B will do a better job for the vocals, so I've decided to go with SM7B mic.

I have Alesis Multimix 16 FireWire as an interface (recorded demo consisting of 16 tunes, sounds fine for a home studio, now we need to track vocals), so I think I need a better preamp than those built-in to achieve as good results with my equipment as possible (going to upgrade my interface in the near future, so the preamp will also be at hand I suppose later on as well).

My vocal style is in vein of Hatfield, Anselmo, Corey Taylor, Mike Patton (so aggressive singing, sometimes a little screaming, of course I am no way better than those guys :)
