Are you looking for a 2 channel preamp with a HT passthrough or a HT preamp?
Amp and pre-amp
I have about $5,000 to spend On an amp and a pre-amp
50% home theater
50% music. It's more important that the music sounds great rather than the thx if I have to sacrifice. I listen to both soft and classic rock
I haven't been in the market for about 9 years and it seems a bit confusing to me ( I'm to old and tired to re-learn )
I have
Snell XA-60 towers
Snell XA-55 center
Snell SR30 surround
McIntosh PS112 sub
The new room is big 17' X 26'
I moved and sold my
MX 134
MC 126. Seemed to have a very difficult time driving the Snells when I get drunk and turn up the volume

Heres a couple of links that may help, http://www.hometheater.com/category/preampprocessor-reviews http://www.hometheater.com/category/power-amplifier-reviews Do you listen to music in 2 channel or 5 channel? . |
Those 4 ohm Snells need good power. A Marantz processor, maybe the 7701. For an amp, Outlaw Audio 7200, and you'd have over a grand left over. Might want to get a dealer to install and set up the Marantz and have the 7200 on hand for him, these processors are getting pretty complicated like computers anymore. |
