I would second what sogood51 stated. The dedicated pre amp, by far, would better any processor/pre. Of all the processors I have used nothing can beat a dedicated two channel pre for the front speakers.
Best for the details?
I'm currently using an Outlaw model 950 pre-processor and model 755 amp. My speaker set-up is Energy Verita V2.3i mains, Veritas V2.0iC center, Sonance TR-4000 in-ceiling surrounds (only place they will work in my home), and a SVS sub. I've been very happy with the amp and the pre-amp is also very good considering what I paid for it. However, I cant seem to get the detail I want and I'm thinking it's the pre-amp, even though it is supposed to have a true bypass mode. So, my question is what do you guys consider the most detailed pre-amp/proccessor for less than two grand. Used is fine. BTW, primary sourc is Sony DVP NS999ES with SACD. Thanks.
