What 2 Ch PreAmp for DefTech BP2000 and B&K Amp

Ronald,

I set up my parents' home theatre with the DefTech BP2000's, BK AV5000 and a BK HT Preamp (Forgot the model number!!! AVP1030, I think). Its D/A sounds pretty good, IMHO.

But, you want to use those speakers for music only, huh? Unusual choice, but for Pop/Rock they should be adequate. Maybe you should look for an older Conrad Johnson PV10a with four outputs, so you can bi-amp, bi-wire.

Good luck.

Ronald,

OK, I'm with ya, dude. =]

I would still recommend the BK line of HT pre/pro for two channel listening in your situation. I use the DIRECT mode to avoid any processing. It could also handle your HT duties.

And, I would still highly recommend the CJ PV10A or other CJ tubed pre. This will give you the warmth that I believe you are looking for. Imaging is awesome, also.

Let me know what you buy.
