Sunfire & Anthem are both hard to beat and fairly easy to use. Theater is great, video is great, 2 channel will keep up with any 2 channel units.
Best Cost No Object pre-pro is?
Opinions? One that acts a top notch pre amp in to channel, has a decent DAC for movies etc and very good video performance, even if its just transparent HDMI switching? The ones I have heard about are Krell, Mark Levinson, Halcro, and Goldmund. Among these Krell and ML do not have HDMI. Does this impact video quality with blu ray etc at all? Any comments on the above or any other?
