Hi,
I currently have 803 Diamond speakers with JL Audio Fathom 113 Sub. I am waiting for my Classe 5300 Amp to come in from being backordered. Currently I am using the Denon 5308CI preamp/processor. I was looking at the Classe SSP 800 which woud be a wonderful combination with my Amp but I have about 70% HT and 30% Audio listening. Hence Video processing including upscaling is very important. Currently the Denon is able to upscale everything into 1080p and does a very good job for display on my 60inch Kuro Elite. From what I have read about SSP 800 the Video processing is not the best. Any recommendation as to something else which would give me the SSP sound quality with good Video processing - or am I expecting too much or should I wait on the pre-amp maybe till Classe comes out with a preamp with better Video processor including HDMI 1.4? Any ideas? How about the Denon AVP-A1HDCI Pre-Amp - use that for the Video processing and use the Classe 5300 Amp for the Audio part? Or should I sit tight with the Denon 5308CI?
Thanks
