pre-amps for home theatre....whats your preference?


So I have bought all the speakers  that I wanted for home theatre during black friday sales.  Next is a pre-amp.  Looking for recommendations on which pre-amps are good/great that will mainly be used for movies.  Yamaha..Marantz..Arcam..Anthem...etc...are some better for music and some better for movies? Thanks!

Would help greatly to know which speakers you bought, if you’re using a subwoofer, and your budget.  Also, is 2-channel music important to you at all or is this strictly a multichannel system?
Your speakers are very easy to drive so not much power needed.  Yamaha AVRs are very good for both music and movies, and they’re one of the most reliable brands on the market.  Go to Accessories4less.com and get the RX-A780, which is from Yamaha’s upscale Aventage line and is on deep discount at $499.  You won’t be disappointed.  Best of luck.
