Hi,
I'm looking to expand my stereo focused setup to surround and my initial idea was to use pre-out for front channels and internal amp for surround channels. Then later maybe look to add a center channel. One possible solution I found was Marantz SR1510 but when looking for reviews I found some posts about pre-out having problems in these models because the internal amp doesn't get deactivated. Is the problem so big I should rather look at just using the receiver for all the channels and something like Denon 2700h instead?
The amplifier I use for stereo is an NCore 250w stereo amplifier and I don't close to push it to its limits in terms of volume/power.
