    600 series HT Amplifier Recommendation?

    Hello my friends

    I bought a B&W speakers for HT and I want to buy the correct
    amplifier for this speakers. My speakers are

    PRINCIPAL 604 S3
    CENTER LCR 600 S3
    SURROUND 602 S3

    the local sound store recommends the ADCOM GFR-700

    they said that ADCOM is better than ROTEL for price-value

    somebody help me please!

    I'd say adcom and rotel were about equal in price-value.
    I drive my B&W 703 with an Adcom GFA5500, and am happy enough
    with it.
    If you can you might try both amplifiers. One might have a sound you prefer,
    or, they might sound identical to you. Look at the features they offer.
    Does one have something you really want?

      Hi all.

      I'm loaning my Adcom 7707 to my father in law whom I built some Finalists for his birthday. Adcom has been great in helping me convert the amplifier from 120 to 240. One question I had was if anyone knew if it would harm the amp if I disconnected some of the channels? He's going...

      Adcom 555II with B&W 700 series
      by Trevor
      I was wondering if anyone has heard or has used an adcom amp with the 700 series? I am using an Adcom 555II to power my 604 s3 and it sounds good, but I know that the 700 series is more detailed than the 600 series. Do you think the 700 series will pick up more distortion than the 600 series?
