Best sounding processor

Looking for a great sounding processor, say 11 channels or so.

wouldnt it sound better with tubes? I now use a tube preamp which is a nice added layer on top of av processor.

Seems to offer great functionality and good dac config. Heard it awhile back and liked it. Not sure how it compares to Marantz.
