Posts: 1 Halo A51 with Paradigm
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Greetings to all,
I've got upgraditis in the purest sense....starting from scratch!! Well almost. I had a pair of klipsch horns which I recently upgraded to Paradigm studio 100's V3. (6 months old GREAT local deal on ebay). Currently I'm driving them using a HK AVR 7300 reciever (Their top of the line 110w X7).
Currently I'm using anti-cables for the paradigm's and am wondering what would be the next logical step. I listen to 60% music/ 40% movies. When listening to the paradigms with various types of music the woofers are barely moving even when i change the x-over freq's. I've heard that the paradigms really need alot of power so I'm considering a good multi-channel amp.
My very short list includes:
Anthem MCA 50
Parasound halo A51
Parasound new clasic 5250
Rotel mult-channel suggestions??????
Sunfire cinema grand sig or orig.
From what brent has told me very little sonic difference between the 5250 and A51. But I do love the Halo look and class A amp for most listening. The paradigms tend to be bright so a 'warm' sounding amp seems in order. All suggestions are welcome. I'll most likely be making this purchase 'blind'...I have 4 kids under 8....
Thanks!!!!!!!!
