Pre-amp for sunfire signature 2 channel amp

It is kind of funny that Hotrod mentions the TG 2 for use in a 2 channel system. I just spoke to a gentleman was doing the exact thing that Hotrod mentions. As it turns out, he had the TG 2 driving a standard Sunfire ( 300 / 600 ) hitting some ML's ( can't remember the exact models ). He told me that he had tried a LOT of different preamps and he thought the TG 2 was the best. This included some tubed units ( ARC, etc...) also. Might be worth checking into even though it is more money that you initially mentioned. Sean

Rather than an answer, I have a relevant question.

I'm trying to build a 2-channel audio system. (HT is not that important to me now. So with the 2-channel amp in mind, I'm wondering how would I connect the subwoofer.

BTW, so far I've decided on
B&W 803
REL Sub
Amp and Pre-amp (undecided but thniking about B&K and Rotel).

thanks in advance for the help.

Typical connection would be amp to subwoofer, subwoofer to speakers.

I've tried the B&Ks on my MLs, and I was disappointed with the sound quality. I've also auditioned the Rotels on B&W 803, and i have to say it was about the same level as B&K components.

As for my setup, I am getting sunfire signature amp (2x600 watts) and sunfire theatre grand II. They are little more expensive than B&K or Rotel, but I think I am getting much better sound quality without breaking the bank.

I've decided on TGII for pre amp. (Thanks Sean and Hotrod)

Now I want to upgrade my system to accomodate HT since TGII already handles surround sound processing. I just want bear bone, mediocre HT system. What do you recommend for driving center and 2 real speakers? I don't want to break the bank, and my new amp should work well with 1st amp (sunfire sig).

Thanks in advance for your help.
