Hi from Canada Guys, I am new to this forum and I am looking for some expert advice and help. I am buying a new pre/pro. My short list is the Anthem AVM20, Lexicon MC8 or MC12 and the Krell HTS 7.1. I realize that the latter two by most standards are in a different category, however, I think the Anthem may be undervalued both in price and performance. Although I don't want to flush my money, if the performance justifies the extra cost that's not an issue. I watch movies and T.V. 75% of the time and music 25%. I am looking for a pre/pro that can handle movie soundtracks with precise separation and nuance ( I like to hear everything on the soundtrack) and is respected in the Music mode as well. Video switching, upgrade-ability, tweak-ability and is somewhat future proof. I will be entering into the realm of HDTV in the future. I have listened to them all and they all sound great. I like the 7 channel matrix-ed sound modes(Logic 7, Anthemlogic etc.). My current system consists of Hitachi 61"SBX, Denon AVR3300, EAD Amps, Monitor Audio 7's, 5's , 2 subs, 2 Satellite receivers, Denon DVD, Sony SVHS and a few others.
Any one who has auditioned any of these, owns one or can give me some expert advice of the differences, performance vs each, pro's and con's would be greatly appreciated. My head hurts from all the reviews I've read on these. Please help... Thanks
