Yes, it is usually very useful to have an active preamp, and the more complementary ones for Bryston and maggies are tube types.

Current production would be the Doge 8 and Rogue RP1 and Vincent, and the Schiit line of headphone amp/preamp.

Classics include the Melos SHA Gold,, particularly with the Maestro or Reference mod package, Bruce Moore designs from Audible Illusions (Uranus, Dual Mono, Saturn Modulus) MFA (Magus and Luminescence).
Lesser values - Most of the ARC line stages, and those from CAT, BAT, CJ, VAC, VTL and Manley . VAC and BAT being particularly expensive.

On the DIY side, the Bruce Herran line single ended non feedback line stage is great/
