High end stereo preamp vs mc preamp?

So thinking about spending $10-15k for a quality stereo preamp for bypass use with ht system. Have a middle of the road avr, which is now used as a preamp, which sounds fine for ht.

now wondering if a hi end ht preamp, 5 to 7 channels, exists that achieves a level of quality offered by a high end stereo preamp. Seems same level of spending toward a stereo preamp must provide opportunity to get an amazing ht preamp with a great stereo capability

No such thing as high-end HT preamp. Expensive, yes. But high-end is defined not by price but by the quest for excellent sound quality.  

Sorry but I had to take a different tack because jond and soix already covered the obvious. You want good quality sound, you go 2 channel all the way. You want some noise to go with your movies, your AVR has you covered.
