I'm not a big Meridian fan, but they do make good theater preamps. I used to have one. I think it was an 861, and don't think there would be a need to get something better for theater. The best solution would probably be to get a good 2 channel preamp with a HT bypass. Doing it that way allows you to focus just on the preamp without buying a bunch of features you really don't need.
Tube preamp between Oppo 105 and Meridian G57 amp
I am presently using a Meridian G68 processor in between an Oppo 105 source and Meridian G57 and G55 amps. It has a great sound and I don't think there are any processors that sound any better (other than a Meridian 861). However, I was thinking of a tube preamp. I know that would give up the surround sound that makes the G68 sound so spacious. But a tube may be even more spacious. Any ideas/experiences?
