Which processor to combine 2 channel/ 5.1 ?


I am combining 2 channel & 5.1 in one room. I want to use
my tube preamp( joule electra mk111 & ear phonostage) when listening to the front left & right channels. Then hit a switch and activate all channels with tv/dvd. I will be using 2 monoblocks for the fronts and a 5 channel amp for the rear center and subwoofer. Which proceesor do you reccomend?

McIntosh MX132 or the Classe SSP75. Both are truly excellent and will do exactly what you are looking for. Arthur
Take a good look at the new B&K Ref 50. Should do everything you want in HT processor.
You didn't mention a price, but I love my Meridian 568 - so clean, great 2-channel as well as multi-channel music settings (you might get hooked). Check it out.
