Im going thru same dillema... What to do?
Im using a Yamaha 630 as a pre (It has 2 channel
bypass along with 6 channel bypass) with a Bel Canto
EVO6 amp(very high end). Im also using Analysis
plus wires (very high end)with mid of pack Infinity
speakers. It sounds REALLY good... BUT i know im just
barely scratching surface. Im in the process of buying
a new pre-amp/surround proccessor i have narrowed it
down too two... The EAD theatremaster 8000 and the Aragon
stage one. I can guarantee you will get hear a HUGE
difference with a quality pre or pre/surround processer.
I know what the Denon's and the Yamaha's sound like.
They have amazing features and value for price but
if you want high end sound you have to go extra..
I hope it helps you.. and good luck..
