[70sMac]

Along with the Mac stuff you can see in our signature, we own a Denon CDR-W1500 that's served us very well (for a long time). We also recently added a new Oppo 203 (SACDs) to our modest system, but the Denon is our got to for the HDCDs in our collection.

After more than a decade in a very quiet condo environment, we are finally back in a home again. We have lots of room to listen to our audio equipment now so, long story short, we're in the process of setting up an entertainment room where we can enjoy stereo audio and our OLED television.

In short, we would like to start out with our very first 5.1 setup, so the MX-130, by all accounts, won't cut it. Bearing in mind that we would still like to enjoy our 2-channel setup, which Denon preamp/processor would you be looking at?

I realize that I'm dropping in several equipment names/numbers, but the signature space wouldn't allow for anything more...so I'm adding our Sony X800M2 to the list as the unit we presently go to for Bluray movies and DVDs.

Thank you for your time...
