I'm planning a 2006 upgrade and am wondering if using two different spec power amplifiers could provide a workable solution.
Presently I have an RMB-1075 driving 2 B&W Nautilus 804's (fronts), 2 B&W CM2's (surrounds) and 1 B&W CMC centre speaker.
My plan, for this year, is to purchase an upcoming RMB-1092 amplifier (500 watt x 2) to drive 2 B&W 803D's (fronts). I'd use my present RMB-1075 amplifier (120 watt x 5) to drive the 2 B&W 804's (surrounds) and the centre B&W HTM3S.
I may or may not decide to upgrade my pre-amp, the RSP-976.
My audio/movie preference is 80% audio & 20% movie. I prefer my audio (including DVD music) to be a 2 channel (plus sub) experience.
Is this workable? Would the sound from the 2 front speakers be noticeably unbalanced in relation to the centre & surrounds in movies?
All comments appreciated. Thanks.
