I have been reading this board for a while (2 years?) and decided it was finally time to post. Any advice on a logical (but this hobby isn't logical is it) upgrade path would be greatly appreciated.
My current set up is as follows:
Rotel 1055
Paradigm Studio 60 Fronts
Paradigm Studio Surrounds
Paradigm Studio 470 Center
I am moving to a seperate two channel tube based set up but the above system will remain my HT system. Looking to upgrade this HT system. Can spend about $2000-3000 US on an upgrade. Thinking about keeping the 1055 as my processor and buying a seperate amp. Options include Rotel 1095, 1077 as well as amps from Anthem, NAD, Outlaw, Parasound. Will probably upgrade the 1055 to a pre/pro at a later date (1068, 1098?).
Keep in mind that this system will be used for HT only so a slightly more forward presentation might be preferable (e.g. very articulate dialouge) in this system since it will not be used for 2-channel.
If you were going to set up a HT only system what upgrade path would you choose? Would you stick with Rotel (of course, laugh) or would you consider others amps as well for HT only.
A good sub recommendation would be appreciated as well. Sorry for the long post. Thanks.
