RE: "the volume controls in most processors are inferior to those in a good linestage."

I can understand where you're coming from. If it were me, and my needs and wants are probably different than yours, I would keep my basic 2-channel preamp and use a processor strictly for movies or when I feel the need for "surround" and the subwoofer. I had such a setup for a while but it got too messy with all the gear, extra speakers, and tons of wires everywhere! It worked fine but I tore it all down and decided to do simple 2-channel again, for now. ;-)
