My dillema is that I want to simplify my rack setup again and my BBE Bmax is doing everything I want, except in order to get the grit that I like I have to use a Sansamp BDDI in front of it. I'm looking for something that will offer a compromise between the grit/warmth of the BDDI and the clean/responsiveness of the Bmax AND have a compressor built-in.

So far my search has lead me to this preamp
You are right about the compressor. This thing seems just like what you want, but I guess you'd have to try it yourself to see if you like the compressor. It's almost the same thing as the SVT-5 Pro, except the clean channel sounds a lot warmer on the SVP and the SVP doesn't have an octaver.
