Krell/Classe/B&K

Hello.
I'm pretty new to this so bear with me. I have B&W 803's.
I am looking at 3 Preamps, THE Classe ssp60, the Krell HTS2, and the B&K reference 50.
What are your recommendations? I have read that the Krell does not have bass management? Does that mean I can't change the crossover freq from main speakers to sub??
I will be doing about 70% movies, 30% music.

Thanks for your help. However, I have more questions...

-----------------------------
You haven't indicated your amp selection or cd player, however.
----------------------------
You are correct. I have not decided on the amp yet.
If I go with the Classe ssp60, I'll get a Classe CA 200 for Front rt and left. Then I'll get a Classe CAV-180 for the other speakers.
If I go Krell, I'll get the Krell 3250 3channel amp.
If B&K ref 50, I'll go with the B&K 200.5 amp or the 200.7 amplifier. (200 watts by 5 or 7 channels)

I don't even know what PLII is. What is PLII, and why should I want it?

Lastly, I have no Idea what kind of DVD\CD player I should get. I have heard some good things about Pioneer's elite. I just don't know what to look for in a DVD player. I do know I will want the option of playing music (SACD and the other format?) from it; but that's about all.
