Best Pre-Amp w/Throughput for HT ?


Looking for the best Pre-Amp w/balanced input/outputs so I can have the best of both worlds. Currently own Plinius SA-100 2-Channel Amp, B&W N803's w/HTM-1 Center, Cinepro 3k6II 6-Channel Amp, Lexicon MC-1 HT Processor, Sony DVPS-7700 DVD Player, Wadia 860x CD Player and Speakercraft AIM 3 Acoustical Cieling Speakers for the rear & Side Channels. What I want is the best 2-Channel for music listening and the best HT System with what I currently have. Any suggestions would be welcome and appreciated.

With the gear that you have now, I would give strong consideration to either the Mark Levinson 380 or 380S, both have the home theater bypass... go with the "S" version if you can swing it.
Alternately the Krell KRC-3 also has an HT blow-through circuit.
My first choice would be for the 380S.
Some of the high end Conrad Johnson preamps have the throughput for HT built in. I am only familiar with the Solid State PFR which has it, but I believe their are others.
