HOME THEATer PRE AMP NAD, ROTEL, or Anthem

Please give me your evaluation of which pre amp to buy. I have top of the line Vandersteen front, center, rear, and bass speakers. I replace the PSE mono block system as they went out with a new Marantz power amp, and Oppo DVD. My AV 8003 went out and now I need a new pre amp. The three I think I have zero'ed in on is Nad T 187, Rotel 1572, or an Anthem 60. Thanks in advance for the help.

I don't know if Atmos is important to you but from my understanding the T187 will not get an Atmos or DTSX module but will get a module with 4K video support and HDCP 2.2. copy protection.  I would email or call NAD tech support to confirm this.

I have a previous generation NAD T-175HD(90% same as T187) that I have more than enjoyed for the last 3 to 4 years.  It sounds fantastic for HT and music and has been reliable.  If it was to take a dump in the near future, I would definitely consider the Anthem AVM60 or the older AVM50v2.  On the other hand, I would also consider the current NAD T187 since I have been so pleased with the T175HD.
