AVP-S How good on 2 chanel and movies?


I am purchasing an AVP-S (should arrive in a couple of days) and replacing my current preamp which was a psaudio pca2. I liked the way the pca2 sounded and I used it with nautilus 804's. Also are there certain things that can be done to make the AVP-S a better two channel device (i.e. its sensitive to power cords etc). The reason for the switch is to goto combine movies and 2 channel in a 20X20 foot room. Thanks.

NOt really shure what you are asking. Trying to play a movie in 2 ch will not work well at all since the center normally does 80% of the sound in dolby digital or dts. You really need 5.1 channels to use that decoding.

If you are using tow the best you can do is mono since I am not sure how you would be able to decode the center channel and split it between the tow speakers. What you really need is a souround sound processor and a pre amp wiht a HT bypass or paridity setting. Hope this helps.
