I can recommend the Speakeasy Pre Amp. I'm in the UK and recently
taken delivery of a Speakeasy, cost me a few quid to get it here but
it really was worth every cent. Used it at a gig on Saturday night
with my CX3 and this was the first time in 2 years of playing with
this 'very loud' band that i've had a compliment about my
sound/playing, really cuts thru the mix without swamping the
bass/drummer.
