HD Sattelite Reciever and analog preamp

I have McIntosh all-analog MC preamp with no digital processing, and I need to use HD Sattelite reciever in the same system, which does not have 5.1 analog outs to connect to the preamp.
I was thinking about MC reciever with 5.1 pre-outs to connect to McIntosh.
Anybody has any suggestions???

I think the Outlaw Audio SS receivers have always had pre-outs for all channels.

You can get the C46 Pre amp and find a used MSD4 processor from McIntosh. Or you may look into the MX119, MX135 or a used MX134 to do the job. If you want a receiver the MHT200
that would keep you in McIntosh.

Thanks,

I forgot to mention: I want a very inexpensive solution, since all I actually need is DolbyDigital and DTS decoding of HD sattelite sound.
Regards.

So does your Mc have six analog inputs to pass thru? If so you can pick up a used MSD4 or a MAC3 on Audiogon or AudioClassics.com for a good price they both are good units. I am not aware of any other stand alone processors.
What Mc piece do you have?
