Looking to power my Rega R9's

@akg_ca - My wife will kill me if I try to purchase the OSIRIS - it goes for 10 grand.  I purchased the R9's used for just under $1500 on US Audio Mart.  I'll keep on the look out for a solid pre-amp as my receiver has a pre out.  My budget is probably set to $1500.

Thanks for your input though - it has me looking at Rega gear and I reached out to sound organisation.

@ethos123 - Thank you so much!  I will definitely check the url out.  This is a solid direction for me to check out (thumbs up)

@ethos123 - Thanks again!  I have a quick question regarding my Yamaha receiver.  It doesn't have a pre-out.  A pre-out isn't necessary in this situation, correct?  Would I simply run audio RCA out to HTB/Theater bypass rca in?

Then run the R9's exclusively with the integrated amp (let's say  Parasound Halo Integrated) exclusively for stereo digital & vinyl playback?  When I want surround sound, I have both boxes (receiver and integrated) powered on?  Just trying to get a grasp on the logistics of how this all works.  

Thank you again!

@yogiboy  - My concern is the Yamaha 3070 will not provide enough power to the R9's.  I'd rather just get the 3070 and call it a day, but I'm concerned that the R9's need a little more power.  I wish someone had the R9's and a 3070.

@ethos123 - No worries at all!  I really appreciate all the guidance you and everyone else provided.  I think I may try a Yamaha 3070 from Amazon - If it doesn't do the trick I'll simply return it and then look for a used receiver that has pre-outs and grab a 2-channel amp for the R9's.  

Thanks again!
