Hello
I have recently purchased the 1066 along with the 1090 amp which is driving my main speakers. And by the way the combination is stunning both in sound and appearance (silver). To round out my system I need a 5 channel amp. This amp would drive two PSB inwall rear speakers and a pair of PSB Image 4T speakers in a second zone. I do not use a centre channel so this leaves me with one extra channel. Based on this I believe the 1075 would be plenty of amp and the 1095 perhaps overkill. The one catch however is that I would like to use the spare channel to drive my sub. I have an NHT SW3P sub. The box itself is a sealed passive unit with a 12" driver. There is an outboard NHT amp (250 watt) that currently drives it. However I want to simplify the system and take out the sub amp and use the spare channel on the five channel amp and use the crossover and sub volume control in the 1066 to easily control the bass. The NHT amp has a volume level and crossover but everytime I want to do "on the fly" adjustments I have to get up to adjust the level as the amp is not remote controllable (call me lazy).
So in this situation I am wondering if the 1075 is the best choice or should I go for the 1095 for the extra oomph? In Canada the 1095 is twice the price of the 1075.
Any opinions are appreciated!
