Are Their any Tube Preamp with Home Theater Bypass?


Does anyone have experience with a decent tube based preamp with a home theater bypass feature?

To name a few,

ARC REF 6SE & LS28SE

Modwright LS300 & LS 36.5 Tube Linestage

Backert Labs Rhythm & Rhumba

IME, you’re better off keeping 2-ch and home theater separate. Can it work, sure but the end results can be very mid-fi on either side. If you’re striving for ultimate performance in both arenas, keep them apart. Been there, done that with ARC / Modwright on 2 ch and Classe Delta Series / Krell Evolution Processor and Amps on HT - 7.2 driving all B&W 800D2/HTM/804D/SCMS/JL Audio f212v2.

Why must you haste to take my feedback out of context? Would you mind showing a hybrid system that excels both in 2 ch and HT at ultimate level?
