Best 7.1 pre amp used or demo for 2000.00???


It is time to upgrade. My Adcom GTP 760 is moving on to another room. Now I need a quality pre amp for my main system.( Adcom 300 by 7 and B&W speakers) HT and music are both important. I like the "GEE WHIZ" factor of the Rotel 1098 video display. I realize I would have to look hard to find the Rotel for 2000.00 or so. Is there another pre amp I should be considering? Thanks for your help.
baffled
I almost bought the 1098, but I saved cash and bought the 1068, that screen is useless and "GEEK'S GOLD" if you ask me, who needs to see the movie on that small screen, and as far as using it as a set-up screen it is just as useless because if you are close enough to see that display you can simply reach out and adjust the unit by hand lol!
You may find something else you like from NAD or maybe even look at used Lexicon...or any number of options, just for god's sake dont pay extra for a stupid screen on it lol
P.S. the extra electronics needed for that display cant be good for the over-all signal of audio right???????
I was hoping that I could see the display better when using the remote from a listening position. I have not seen either of the Rotels in person yet. It seems to me the larger display would be easier to see from a distance. Since you have seen them both, maybe you can tell me...... can either be seen from about 12 ft away? If so, is there any reason to choose the 1098 over the 1068?
Take a look at the Anthem stuff. If you are willing to pay a bit more, take a look at Krell.
