    Going from receiver to separates- advice needed

    I have a Nakamichi AV 10, Nak dvd and cd, velodyne sub and Von Schweikert speakers all the way around. I have been using the Nakamichi, but I just scored a 2 channel parasound (not currently working though) a 3 channel B&K, and a 2 channel Rotel. I am thinking for now use the B&K for center/right/left, and the rotel for the rears. When the parasound is fixed I would use it for right/left, and the B&K for the other 3- opinions, advice?

    Continuing from your other post - that's just amazing. I'd say you have the progression pretty well thought out, but just be aware that these amps will have different tonal characteristics that may turn out to be fairly obvious as you pan from mains to center to surrounds. Just going from memory tho', the Parasound and the B&K may (should?) sound fairly similar. I've not heard a Rotel so I can't comment there. Some of our resident Rotel-heads should be able to help on that.

    Good luck.

      Looking to upgrade from avr to separates. For various reasons I've narrowed it down to: NewClassic 5125/7100 combo or Rotel 1075/1098. Potential to bump amps up to 5250 or 1095 but for argument sakes,...

      Nakamichi Receiver 1 "too loud"
      by numberoneoppa
      Hey everybody, I was given a Nakamichi Receiver 1 by a friend to test out before I built him some speakers, but the receiver is just too powerful I fear.

      It's rated at 80WPC, and I've tested it on my main speakers, the North Seas (8" 2-way) that I built a little while back, and...
