I may have an opportunity to snag a deal on some Snell speakers, and I'm leaning toward Rotel separates when I rebuild my HT. I'm just wondering if anyone has driven Snells with Rotel gear and how it sounds.
Depending on the prices I can get and how I like the sound I may go with the Snell .5 MK2 series or as high up as the XA 60 towers.
Most Snells are 4 ohm nominal and around 89 dB efficient. I'm thinking of using a RMB-1075 or 1095 amp initially, and then adding a RB-1080 for the mains and adding two more speakers for 7.1 down the road. Or I might grab a second 1075 and bi-amp the mains. That I haven't decided yet. Do you think the 1075 would be adequate for speakers of this caliber?
Any other thoughts?
