Pre/Pro Advice: Rotel, B&K, Anthem


Time to upgrade my old Rotel RTC-970 and I'm looking for advice on selection of a new Pre/Pro. This will be used more often for music than home theater, but I still expect some significant home theater use - perhaps 60/40 music vs HT.

I'm looking at the Rotel RSP-1068, the B&K Reference 50, and the Anthem AVM-20 (I'd look to pick up a used AVM-20). I'd be interested in comments from people who have had these components with respect to sound, user interface, and build quality/reliability.

Also, is there something else I should be considering in this price range?

The rest of the system will include a pair of Rotel RMB-980BXs driving Snell XA75PS mains in a bi-amp configuration, and a Rotel RMB-1066 driving the center/surrounds.

Thanks,
Dave

Anthem, look no further! Viva la Anthem! Of the 3 listed Anthem would be my choice. I would also consider Arcam.
