    It depends if you want the various whiz bang type features of the Yammy, or the better amplification and sonics of the Rotel... Also, I believe the 2600 is much cheaper, if that's a factor.

    I'm not sure how well the Rotel handles HDMI audio, or if it's video only, which also could be a factor.

      Hi! My understanding is that room calibration /with parametric equalizers/is a must for any system. Most listening rooms are far from perfect acoustically and being able to "patch" the signal at some critical frequancies is a big plus. If Rotel does not have it - I PERSONALLY would not even consider it. Yamaha 4600 is better than 2600 in terms of amplification plus it has i-link for all the digital media, incl SACD and DVD-A. So if your Yammy's internal amp won't properly drive B&W 603 /which I doubt/ you will always be able to buy a power amp. Rotel is known for their affordable amps. But there are a lot of recievers out there - not just Yammy & Rotel - lots to choose from :W

        What about Harman/Kardon?

        I have 603S3 and I am in the process of collecting full configuration from the 600 series. I have HK 235 and I am very happy with it so far. Wonder whether it will keep up with the full configuration though.

            upgrade reciever or speakers ???
            by IllNastyImpreza
            ok I'm running a Yamana HTR-5630 reciever on my DCM kx-12 front speakers, and its JUST not powerfull enough to run them.

            I'm thinking about building some Tritrix MTM speakers.

            would these sound better than my current speakers ???

            or should I just upgrade...
