Home Theater Fronts, Center & Receiver - 2K Used
If you have smaller acoustic space in, say, a modest smaller flat, I'd say you'd probably do good with some acoustics friendly Kef UniQ driver, coaxial, something'er-other's, matching center and or surrounds, and stay with your favorite British am...

your Thoughts on AV8801?
lol..who knew that the entire 25000 thread amp/preamp discussion forum section, consising of dialogue on world class pre's and such were missing a key element, in the Marantz 8801! That does it..Imma start a new thread over there. I am...no I am, ...

Look further..looook further. Got it. -Note to self this New Years. Yes, Einstein would be so proud. 
your Thoughts on AV8801?
Ok ok..that's probably a bit cynical on my part. I condeed.However, apparently, in a pinch, I can substitute the Marantz for my Pass Labs pre, no problem. Who knew!?!!So, thanks for that...

your Thoughts on AV8801?
you know what you should do? ...you should AB movies from your Yammie into some amps, vs new $2229 used car investment, and see if anyone on your block would actually hear a difference to justify your purchase!?! My guess is..yyyeeaaah. FUN THOUGH...

The value of top end 1080p projection
TWB2, all depends on the room, screen, and setup. Is room blacked out and dark boundaries, or is less than ideal,brighter colored surroundings, maybe even daytime viewing? All this matters.So, the throw is 24" fixed distance option, and you alread...

Personally, id get some used anthem n forget about it, likely! i see ZERO need to spend high dollars for any pre/pro these days, when you can get many hd Dolby /DTS Master equipped pre or receivers as pres for pennies, used! And most all of em can... 
Anthem D2V 3D/P5 or Cary Audio Cinema 12/7.250
If mainly movies are you deal, then the S150's should serve most just fine, and do well in low ceiling applications. As for Oppo bypass, fer chits and gigglies, you can always try tinkering with bypassing the external pre/pro, going straight to am... 
Yamaha DSP-A1 Find
Descent, but not real refined, ultimately. And, like the 3090 before it,had mediocre amps. RX-Z series piece's were better sounding, and then you still will want the superior Dolby HD n DTS Master, I think...Yes, for pennies, you got great deal. (...
