I'm looking at the Conrad Johnson Gat2 which provides all the functionality you need inside a home theater.
Their internal design is simplified as well.
VAC preamps - too expensive?
It seems like you’re always steering back to home theater and that’s cool if you’re into that. I have a lot of friends who love music but want their system to do both. Why not try out these products- https://www.trinnov.com/en/products/altitude-sup-16-sup/ https://www.genelec.com/home-theatres This stuff will serve you well

“They need to modernize their functionality. They have a home theater knob on the front of the box and yet the remote can’t control input selection. I believe volume can be controlled by the Remote.” |
Trinnov it's a nice unit but very few people you 16 channels. If you're only using seven or eight channels which is quite a bit, this unit would seem wasteful. Not sure all the excess bodes well for good sound. Would be nice if Home theater processors became to chassis with the hopes of improving sound. But I spoke about like in Conrad Johnson gat2 vs vac which fall short for home theater use due to functionality limitation by not having a remote select inputs. |
