I came home yesterday to find my GTX-1 dead. It was apparently killed by a lightening strike. I had been plugging my Acurus amps directly into the wall as there seemed to be a slight sound improvement and had all the other equipment plugged into a Monster Cable HTS3500. I think the surge went through the amps, the interconnects and into the pre/pro. It seems to have stopped there because the other equipment is fine. Several things in other parts of the house were fried as well.
The point of this post is to hopefully get some recommendations on my next processor. When(if)insurance pays off, I will probably have about 1200.00 to spend on a new processor to hold me for about a year or at least until I can get something in the 3000.00 dollar range. Since 2ch. music is very important to me and surround music(DVD-A)is not,nor is 7.1(yet),i am thinking about a used B&K Ref20. I like the fact that it has 2ch analog pass-thru and seems to enjoy a high music pedigree. So what else should I be considering? Let me know what you guys think.
