If you had 1500 to 2000$ to spend


And sound quality (two channels and multichannels) your primary concern.

Would you rather buy...

1-A used high end processor ( krell hts 7.1, classe ssp-300 or other similar high end processor)

2-or a brand new low end with all the bells and whistle processor?

I really mean processor, not receiver.

3-If you had 2000$ would you do the same thing?

p.s. There is not enough money to buy a high end 2 channels preamp + a processor, or receiver

Anthem makes many processors, from the avr20 to the d2.

Sunfire has the grand theater series.

Anthem is nearer than sunfire.

However, classe is even closer, and simaudio is almost in mt backyard.

Any negative and/or positive feedback on those and krell processor ( hts 5.1/7.1)
( s-1000 : out of reach $$$ lol)
