![]() I don't think gobs of watts are all that important. ![]() On the other hand, simply feeding the output of a surround processor into the Aux input of a high quality preamp isn't that big of a hassle and keeps things pure when you want purity.Īs for opinions. I'm sure the prices would drop considerably if high performance sonically superior processors were in demand and mass produced. I hope we get another one so that we can compare. I'd like to do the comparison, but we no longer have the No. 502 which sounds very good, probably doesn't sound as good at "simple" two channel reproduction as the $10K No.326S. Is technology just not this far along yet?It is, but precious few consumers care enough so the offerings that are full featured surround capable and sonically excellent are few and extremely costly. If i could find a nice easy to use, family friendly, pre-pro to do it this way, and only sacarfice a minimal amount in stereo audio quality, I would seriously consider it. I'm been thinking about this lately, and was looking to demo some various stuff and see what i found. Especially when you consider that my room (along with most other folks) aren't sonically perfect, that using room correction may be a better way to go than a pure analog path. Maybe technology isn't at that point, but logically you would have to think that it will be possible. You would have to think that at some point, technology would allow the two paths (digital room correction vs pure analog path) to cross, or at least come close. This way you could combine the room correction with a high quality amp for 2 channel (as well as the home theater stuff for those of us that are trying to do both). I was thinking of something along the lines of the new Marantz, Anthem, Mcintosh pre-pro. What if you were to combine a modern higher quality home theater pre-pro with a good main amp for 2 channel and an av amp for the surround stuff. Widget may have answered this in his post, but I thought I would ask the question anyway.
