amp or preamp most important


so I'm electronically impaired ! Whats more important in the final stage of sound for music and movies, I'm thinking about an anthem p5 325w x 5 and a anthem avm 50, is this going to give me a superb all around 2 channel and home theater, thanks ?

One could argue that a pre-amp is superfluous, but I don't believe the same could be as easily said about amplification.
The speaker/amp combination is the heart and soul of any system.

Get the pairing that rocks you and everything else is downhill.
IMO the heart and soul of a system is the room acoustics and the speaker. Then the speaker and amp.
