Home Theater Systems Buying Guide
Preamps & Processors
Preamps and processors handle the music and video signals before going on to an amplifier, your speakers, and ultimately your ears. Typically built into a receiver or an integrated amplifier, having them separate offers significant advantages. As dedicated components, these “separates” are able to do a better job. Everything will be cleaner and clearer, and as signal technologies improve, you can switch out just one of these babies without changing your whole system. It’s also the best way to build a better system over time. Separates are the way to go if you can. World Wide Stereo stocks preamps and processors from the world’s finest audio and video companies… and whether for music or home theater. We’re happy to answer any questions, and/or help you pick the best one for the job. Give us a call or lets chat it up.
