5khz is in the VLF band (also in the human hearable audio band)

This looks like a suitable VLF receiver circuit:

(Magnetic Pickup) at
http://www.spiro.fisica.unipd.it/~mbarbisa/espfis/VLFwhistle.htm#Magnetic

you probably dont need the second op amp and should feed the output
into
a tone decoder pll like the lm567

an even simpler circuit on the same page might work too
(Super-Tiny VLF Receiver)

see http://www.scary-terry.com/more_stuff/tonedet/tonedet.htm
for an example lm567 circuit
