best used Pre/Pro for $1000


I'm putting together a home theater system and already have a parasound halo a52 5 channel amp and wondering what would be the best preamp processor I could use in the $1,000 range. My speakers are Thiel Viewpoints as my front L and R, Thiel powerplanes as my center and rears and a theil SS1 sub. I've been thinking about a parasound C2 or integra DHC 80.1 or 80.2. Any ideas??

Anyone have comments on the nad pre pros. I see alot of chatter on the onkyo units but not much on the nad. They are often available open box and refurb as well
Martykl. thanks for the reply. I looking at 2K for a pre pro used or new. I wonder about the 5508-does not look like there are a lot of other options in this range....
Speaking of the 5508 has anyone checked current street prices from authorized dealers?

Im also interested in this unit but have not seen it discounted . Would anyone consider a refurbished unit? Seems Like alot of things to go wrong to buy used /refurb or am i wrong
