You are probably familiar with the term ‘Receiver’. Think of a Receiver as three discrete products in one. A PreAmplifier, A Power Amplifier and an AM/FM tuner.

The term ‘Processor’ is focused mainly on a home theater Dolby video signals as well audio signals.
Tom and Kal are more expert in explaining this but this is a start.
