I would suggest a solid look at the Integra 9.9 or the Onkyo 886 preamp-processor.

They are the same units with different cosmetics and there is a difference in price. You can buy the 886 from Onkyo dealers in Europe but in the US you have to get the Integra from an authorized Onkyo dealer; they don't offer the Onkyo versions of pre-processors to the dealers.

However, there are a few places in North America to get the 886 if you want to save a few $$.

As is they do very good jobs, and from the sounds of it you would be happy right there.

There are people who swear by the mods done by The Upgrade Company to the 886, making it able to compete and according to some, beat, anything on the market sonically.
