I think Sony (ES) makes such a device.
Home Theater and Two Channel With Out Reciever?
Would it be possible for me to substitue my home theater reciever for an amp, pre-amp, CD and DVD player setup? Ideally, I am looking for a system that performs well for music and is adequate for Home Theater. My thought would be to run my amps, cd and dvd player through a dedicated pre-amp and use the processor in my dvd player for Home Theater. Is this possible? If so, are there any draw backs that I should be aware of?
Use the following system for reference:
McCormack DNA-125 2 Channel Amp
McCormakc DNA-HT3 3 Channel Amp
Pre-Amp?
CD Player Music Hall CD-25
DVD Player Toshiba SD-9200
Speakers NHT - VT 2.9
Sub HSU VTF-3
I really have a hard time justifying the huge price for a dedicated processor. Classe, Bryston, Krell, Proceed, all equal big bucks. I also understand that it's possible to use my existing HT reciever as a pre-amp, but I don't want to take the chance of downgrading music performance.
Thanks in advance for any help.
