Lexicon MC-1/EAD TM 8 Signature/Anthem AVM20?


I can't decide between these three. I listen to music about 50% of the time so a good 2-channel performance is very important to me.
All three cost about the same now (MC-1 and TM8 used). I know Lexicon is the biggest name here but I am a little worried about it's age and future support.
Would love THX EX and DTS ES but this is not a deal breaker.
I currently have a pair of Krell-250As, McIntosh MAC-3 and Sonus Faber speakers.
Please help!

Onkyo makes the Integra line.

If music is important to you I would not go with the MC-1. I have had the Lexicon MC-1, Meridian 561 and the Proceed AVP. The most musical of the 3 was the Proceed AVP but the Meridian was a close second. The meridian is an excellant all around performer though and really has some great movie and music software. For me it is a toss up between the 561 and AVP but you can't go wrong with either.

The Lexicon MC-1 is very grainy when listening to music but is great with home theater. The biggest fault however with the MC-1 is upgradability which is why they came out with the MC-12.

Good Luck
