    Is my set up correct?

    Right now I have the A23 powering the front two speakers and the 52 powering the rest. Is this the best way to do this or woud it be better to have the 23 power the back speakers..or doesn't it make any difference?

    It's best to have the stereo amp (the A23) powering your front mains, exactly the way you have it now.

      boettinger, it's up for debate, but like nicholtl said, the general consensus is that in that case, it's best to power your mains with the 2-channel amp, and the the 5-channel power the rest.

        Thanks, I guess I'll leave it since I can't notice any difference.

          I'm building a 2.1 system from scratch and recently picked up an A23 Demo. I was looking to add a matched P3, when I realized it has no bass management.
