how good is the Krell HTS 7.1 pre-amp for 2ch?


Doing mostly 2ch listening now. The system is a bit bright and could be the Wilson WP7 which maybe could be toned down with diff/good pre-amp. However just how good is HTS 7.1 2ch pre? I vaguely recall it may be very good or a dedicated pre could sound much better.

System is Krell 350mcx monos, Wilson WP7. I cannot go tube pre-amp without having the Amps modified which I do not want to do. Thanks all.

What about using two stereo pre-amplifier? I like ARC, what pre-amplifier, if one liked the surround effect of SACD, would it work to use ? I do not see the need for the centre channel and the LFE, I wonder, If I have the same as two pair of B&W 802 bass speakers in a bass tower, why would I need more bass? I also think it strange, related to music, to have speakers behind the listener; as when does a symphony play half its ensemble behind the audience? Why not place the surround closer, but further out and just a bit forward of the listener?
