@dbphd - have you ever tried using your SP3 as the preamp? I would say that the analog input/output sections on the SP3 are at the same level as a high end 2-channel preamp. I would give it a try. At that point, the KX-5 would only be used if you prefer the "sound" of the KX-5.

Here is what I am looking for.....a good sounding (at all audible frequencies) home theater processorAh, that narrows it down. I’ve heard both at different dealerships but with the same stereo and HT demo tracks and they’re both good sounding at all frequencies so you can just take your pick, and I’ll avoid over complicating it by going into sound characteristics. Hope this helps, and enjoy whichever you end up choosing. |
I haven’t heard either processor, but I sympathize with the OP when the usual suspects jump in to tell him that HT systems are terrible for music, he needs a different room, speakers,etc... Regarding the original question, is it possible for the OP to do a demonstration with either in his own system? I am also curious as to why he is not considering a processor by Anthem. |
@mahler123 It is the jungle out there : HT Processors McIntosh Audio Control Acurus Focal Astral Storm Audio- Bryston Anthem NAD Yamaha Marantz Monolith Emotiva I have read , Classé Audio may enter the dance in a near futur. In a dance party , you can’t dance with all the girls. |
