Pre amp recommendations

My current setup 

Gr Research NX studios with 2 subs  

PS Audio M700’s amps

Denefrips Pontus dac

Bluesound Node. Streamer
Anthem AVM 60 surround processor 

i have good cables and XLR where possible  

So, I’ve been upgrading recently and I have to keep my AV system integrated with my 2 channel system. I am very satisfied with my system now but I keep wanting to improve it. 
I believe my Anthem is the weak link here. 
I’m looking to install a dedicated 2 channel pre amp with theater bypass. I’ve been looking at Musical Fidelity M6s, PS Audio Gain Cell, and Parasound P5 or P6. 
Would this be a worthy addition?

I have a Parasound 2100 pre laying around but I feel it wouldn’t be an improvement over the Anthem AVM 60 processor.

Audio GD  HE-1 XLR with 10 tubes and it's own regenerative power supply....$4500....Plays with the 10 K crowd. Awesome unit.

Ok,  I ordered a BHK pre and waiting for it’s arrival. 
I want to thank everyone for their input.
 I realized I should have upgraded my streamer first but the deal I got on the pre I couldn’t pass up. The streamer is next and will be another discussion. 
I seriously considered everyone’s input. It helped me make this decision. 
I’ll give a follow up post on my results.

Congratulations. I think a good choice. Since the preamp is very much the center of the system, better this before any other changes. Tell us your impressions once broken in.
