Re: Best receiver for B&W setup ($1000 +- 200) ?

It'd be a multi-step approach. I assume the Denon has pre-amp in/outs for the main speakers. You just unplug the jumper and go from the pre-amp out to the new 2 channel amp in.

You would only be using the Denon as a pre-amp for music. HT would work as always but you'd have to readjust the front for a new amp.

If you don't want to use the Denon at all for music, you could add a 2 channel pre-amp and only use the Denon when you do HT. This would still use the new amp for the main speakers. You just move the pre-amp out on the Denon from the amp to a Tape or Aux input on the new 2 channel pre-amp. It helps to have a unity gain feature but you can just set the system at a known level for HT.

If you wanted to replace the Denon completely later, you'd have to add a processor and a 3 channel amp.
