Processor Dilemma

I think for -$1000.00, the Marantz AV7005 is a good choice. You could also add little more $$$ and get an Integra pre/pro or an equivalent Onkyo Pro pre/pro.

I think either of these is worth the extra $$$ for the added features including the wonderful Audyssey MultEQ XT32 room correction.

I absolutely love my NAD T175HD pre/pro but either of the above mentioned pre/pros are better "bang for the buck" units.

I won't make a recommendation on something that I've never used myself, but I've heard so many good opinions on Emotiva products I feel its worth mentioning. Its something I would look at if I was in your situation.
