Okay, so ever since I have sold all of my 2 channel audio gear, I have been contemplating which direction I wanted to take. I mean I got the speakers covered. Some Omega Custom 3XRS's which I hope Louis will have done in the next month or so. But now I am contemplating going back to a 5.1 set-up since I just got a new entertainment stand that screams for a center channel speaker.
However I have been bitten by the audiophile bug if you want to call it that. Basically, my music has never sounded this good since I got into two channel music and do not want to compromise. I have had many Audio Video Receivers in many home theater applications and on 2 channel music play back, they came nowhere near what I have experienced with a dedicated 2 channel integrated analog amp. So my question, how can I have the best of both worlds in the same system? Is there a 5.1 pre-amp out there that focuses on 2 channel playback and sounds even better on two channel playback than it does on 5.1 playback?
I guess I am basically looking for an audiophile 5.1 pre-amp.
Thanks guys!
