Any affordable device that boosts -10dBV level to +4 studio level without introducing extra noise?

In addition to the level shifting devices already mentioned, there is the Samson S-convert (possibly no longer made) and the ART Cleanbox. When I was trying to accomplish this years ago to use a pro amp for a diy subwoofer, I came to the conclusion that I could either get a passive device and make input/output impedance ratios worse or get an active device and add noise. No free lunch, but at least you can test whatever you get in loopback with your current best interface and determine whether it makes the chain any worse.
