Processor/Preamp Recommendation


I currently have a Proceed AVP2 and want something with component video switching and one or two 5.1 or 7.1 analog pass through inputs so I can listen to multi-channel SACD and DVD-A. What is out there in the same class as the AVP2 that has these things? I have been thinking about the Classe SSP-300 and the Arcam AV8. Any others?
