Newbie here needing a little advise.
I'm about to purchase a pair of 1 year old B&W N804's. Other speakers in my HT set up are/will be B&W HTM2 Center (planned), Martin Logan Depth Sub, new surrounds TBD.
Currently I have been using an NAD T762 receiver rated at 100WX5. I am skeptical that my NAD will have enough power for the 804's. Does anyone have experience/thoughts on running 804's with a HT receiver such as the NAD T762?
If the NAD does not have the power needed for this set up, I'd like some advise on adding a power amp to this set up and use the NAD as a processor only. Advise on whether or not adding a power amp to the NAD receiver is a good idea or not? What risks/disadvantages are there by going this route?
Also, what 5 channel amps would you recommend? I've been thinking about the Rotel 1095, but am flexible. Not wanting to spend a fortune, but want something to grow into by adding a new matching processor later.
Your advice is appreciated. Sorry for the long post and many questions.
