7.1 Channel Preamp Or Receiver?
I am venturing into the world of 7.1 channel. what i would like to do is find eather a low cost but good receiver with 7.1 preouts and component video switching ( at least 2 channels) or find a cheap but good 7.1 processor. i don't want a wimpy rear channel like some of the cheap stuff has i want as much output from the rear and sides as the front. i am also an equalizer guy so thats another reason i was wanting to find a processor. this way i will use an a/v switcher. ill go from source to a/v switcher to eq to preamp to amp to speaker. anyone have any suggestions?
