Suggestions 4 surround processor w/newest formats.


Hi all,
I'm looking at finally upgrading my ol' reliable surround processor (Legacy-Audio NexStep) to something with all the new HD-Audio formats. Any suggestions as to which way to go?
Have been internet searching Krell, Lexicon, Parasound, Halcro etc.
Some of my associated equipment...
Amplification: Legacy-Audio monoblocs.
Speakers: Infinity Prelude MTS.
Digital: Marantz BD-8002.
Any other info about my system that would help with suggestions please let me know.

Thanks all @ A-gon,

That Integra looks pretty nice and has what I'm looking for.
Macdadtexas, what would be the model I'm looking for on the Anthem?
Thanks for the reply you's guys. Keep it coming and I'll start doing some reasearch and let you know which way we're going.
A-gon's the greatest!!!
Hey Buconer,
That Integra looks like a receiver. I have Monobloc amps. Can I use it as a processor only? Already have all the amplification I need, and then some.
any of the Anthems, it depends on how much you want to spend.

the D2 is pretty incredible

(They both look like receivers, but are processors. No extra amplifiers.)
