Hi Y'all,

     I am looking for ideas with two different budgets.  One for $5k and the other for $7k.  I am only looking at surround sound Pre/pro with separate amp or AV receiver.  The tv and speakers are not needed.  I have Von Schweikerts fronts (VR-1) and center channel (lcr-15) with mb quarts rear surrounds. Whatever you think.  Cables would be needed also.  thanks everyone.

Hi magsterone

Some quick suggestions. There are more combos out there. You might take a look at the websites for NAD, Outlaw Audio and Emotiva.

$5000
> Rotel RSP-1098 pre/pro $3,000
   Rotel RMB-1575 5 x 250w  $2,800

> Marantz AV8003 pre/pro 
              MM8003  7 x 140w

$7000
> Anthem AVM30 pre/pro $3000
   Parasound Halo A 51  5 x 250w  $4,500

Have fun shopping!

I would grab a used Anthem D2 with ARC on A'Gon for 3k - 4k and a D-Sonic Magnum 2500 IceAmp $2775 nothing will match this sub 7k price.
