Multi channel preamps for Movies

What is your budget?

I was thinking maybe a Bel Canto PRE6 or a Parasound Halo P7 on Audiogon.

If you plan to buy the Bel Canto PRE6, thats a good choice if you want to use multichannel. I have used it for music and it has a high level of fidelity.

I think it is a move in the wrong direction. For movies only, a HT processor is more suitable than an analog preamp, even one as good as the Pre6.

ok Kal. What is a move in the right right direction? What is your short list? I am interested and looking for better quality sound for movies. Why do I need a processor, if all the DVD, BlueRays players are going to containt processors more up to date than the HT processor. I would rather only have to change one processor than two. This is the spot I am in now. That is why I was thinking of changing to a multi channel amp once and just change my BlueRay player as required for newer stuff. What does the future hold for us in home theather?
