Hi all. Brand new to the board and was excited to see a Rotel section.
I have recently upgraded most of Paradigm speaker set-up to the Reference line with Studio 60s and Studio CC. Still running the Paradigm PDR-12 and Atoms in the rear. All powered w/ Marantz SR 7200.
I can tell that my Marantz receiver isn't allowing these new speakers to reach their full potential (although I enjoy it as a processor), and I would like to add an amp with an eye toward going the separates route in the future. I really enjoy the Rotel amps that I've heard, and my local dealer recommends them as well.
Do they go well with Paradigms? Anyone have a similar set-up? Which amp should I go with? I'm torn right now between the 2x200, the 5x120, or ponying up the dough right now and going with the RMB-1095. Obviously the 1095 would be ideal and would be around for a long time, the price just stings a bit after the recent upgrades.
Can I get the most out of a Rotel amp if running through a a/v receiver? What are your opinions of the three amps I've mentioned? Any suggestions, tips, or other?
Thanks in advance for any/all replies.
