best used Pre/Pro for $1000

I'm putting together a home theater system and already have a parasound halo a52 5 channel amp and wondering what would be the best preamp processor I could use in the $1,000 range. My speakers are Thiel Viewpoints as my front L and R, Thiel powerplanes as my center and rears and a theil SS1 sub. I've been thinking about a parasound C2 or integra DHC 80.1 or 80.2. Any ideas??

The 5509 is not available in the US.
For $1000 you can get a new Anthem MRX300, I got one to use just as a pre/pro.

Anyone have comments on the nad pre pros. I see alot of chatter on the onkyo units but not much on the nad. They are often available open box and refurb as well

I've had nothing but the best experiences with NAD equipment I've owned and still have an NAD receiver from the late 1980s. It's 40wpc is more dynamic than 80wpc receivers from other brands. I also owned an NAD stereo preamp for almost 17 years. Absolutely loved it. I have not used any of their newer home theater stuff, but my experience has overall been excellent with their products.
