Hi everyone.
I'm a bit of a DIY nut, and while I've always just built stereo tube or mosfet amps, I'm going to tackle a 5.1 channel amp this time. I like the way my homebuilt monsters sound, and I really don't need all the bells and whistles on a receiver as I already have a tuner and all the other junk I need. What I could really benefit from is your suggestions on what brands/models of surround sound processors I should be considering to decode the digital surround information to feed to my six different channels in my soon to be built preamp or power amplifier? Also, before I build these puppies, is there anything special I need to consider in terms of power requirement differences between the channels, etc...?
Are there any reasonably priced units out there that do everything (Dolby Digital, DTS, Pro Logic II, kitchen sink), or am I just smoking the peacepipe a bit too often? I've heard of a few brand names such as Rotel, Outlaw, and Meridian, as well as the old Yamaha and Onkyo, Denon names, but I don't know anything about their quality or what's important to look for in a decoder.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
