2. Pass Lab X 250
3. Theta Dreadnaught II

The EAD Powermaster 2000 would be a great choice for your EAD Signature. I have one hooked up to an EAD Ovation Plus and have never looked back. Incredible sound for both music and home theater.
Since purchasing this combo, I have also invested in two channel solid state and tube gear. After a few months of not playing the EAD combo, I hooked them up and the magic was still there.
Stereophile Guide to Home Theater gave it it's highest rating, not just for movies but for music playback.
Enjoy!

I own a Classe Cav-180 and it's great with music and home theater. I think it is very close to the Theta Dreadnaught but it costs less.

How about buying a killer amp(s) and preamp for the front 2ch, a matching preamp with a HT pass through, and use a flagship Reciever to run the audio and decoding duty for movies. That is how I plan to proceed, but I do Music at least 90% and am not a videophile by any means, nor am I a wealthy man, so this route makes most sense to me, though your situation may vary.
