I have limited floorspace and so my system does double duty for 2-channel audio and home theater, with a priority on 2-channel music. I picked up a tube preamp (Aesthetix Calypso) and I am going to order a BAT VK-250 2-channel amplifier. Even on HT bypass, the signal goes through the Calypso's active circuitry, so it will be tough to match the center and rear channel amplifiers with the mains, but I have been considering a used Proceed or Cary 3-channel amp. It's been a frustrating search and my system seems to get more and more complicated. I'm beginning to think about just sticking with a 2-channel setup with subwoofer. I can have the DVD player (Blu-Ray in the future) handle the decoding and feed my Calypso and sub.
Anyone out there happy with a 2.1 channel setup? Do you miss the center channel? Surrounds?
