I second Sean's response above. I have been using the Parasound AVC1800 for about 6 months now and I am extremely pleased. I looked at a few other AV pre-amps in this general price range, but I kept coming back to this one. If you are truly interested, e-mail me privately and I can tell you how to get a good deal on a new one from an authorized dealer. I think if you give it a listen, you will be impressed.
