Hi, I am interested in getting Polk Lsi9 for fronts, Lsi7 for rears and Lsi centre for a 5.1 system. I will also be using a Denon 3806 (when available) as the receiver. I want to add Rotel amps but don't know which amps will be best for me. Rotel are are available in Austrlalia at relatively good prices as opposed to many others; there are not an overwhelming amount of amps available in Australia (240V) - especially in the 3 channel variety. I will be listening to both HT and stereo music with the speakers set as small and crossed over with a HSU VTF-3 MK2 sub. The Polk's are 4 ohm speakers and rated to 200W p/ch (the 1070 will apparently output 200W p/ch at 4 ohm...perfect).
I was thinking of getting two RB-1070's and using one amp for the Front left and right and one amp for the centre (can try biamp also) and use the 3806 for the surrounds. This setup should be better than a multi-channel amp for stereo.
Otherwise I could get a 1075 and run all 5 channels with the Rotel, except my stereo listening will probably not sound as good and having all 5 channels driven in my large living room, I might be slightly underpowered; at 88db the Polk's are not very efficient neither.
Does anyone like my idea for the two 1070s? The price difference between the options mentioned are negligible to me, any thoughts are welcome, thanks :unsure:.
