CA-70S
Paying homage to the classic American two-stage circuit originally manufactured in the 1930's through the 1950's, the CA-70S perfectly encapsulates the huge thick tone that is what many consider to be the quintessential “old tube preamp” sound. Utilizing our component level modeling technology...

It really depends on the type of coloration you're looking for. All of Acustica's stuff is sampled from actual analog hardware units. Probably your best bet might be to go with their Black plugin. This is their dedicated plugin that compiles just preamps from all their channel strips:

Because Acustica names everything using colors, here's a website that decodes the names and identifies the actual hardware:

If you search for "Black" on that page, you'll find the list of all preamps supported by the Black plugin.

I'll recommend one most won't have thought of: Echoleffe. It's a tape delay, tape amp, and tape saturation plugin. Not worth list price, but worth it on the half off sales they have from time to time.
Pulsar Modular are also, to me, not worth anywhere near the asking price.

I felt that way about PM for quite a while, or at least was highly skeptical. The P455 was, in my opinion, worth the sale price. I find myself using it routinely. Go figure. Still not a fan of the OTT hype.
