Okay, so I managed to stumble upon a Rb 1090 for an absolute steal on craigslist. I bought it and love how it sounds but basically I don't know if it is the right setup for me. I could sell the amp and help pay for some new gear but I don't know what would be best. At the moment my system is a 1075 and RSP 1069. My speakers are JBL e90's for the mains and an ec35 for the center and e30's for rears(not the greatest speakers but looking to upgrade in the future). My dad might be giving me his Infinity Kappa 7 series 2 speakers soon so that would be a start. Now just having the RB 1090 for about a day I have noticed dramatic improvements in the mains especially in the bass.
So basically what I want to know from you guys is what would be my best option. One could be to go with the 1090 for the mains and the 1075 for the rest like I have now. Sell the 1090 and 1075 and get a 1095. Or sell the 1090 and get a 1080 and keep some cash since my speakers really arent that hard to drive.
I really like how the 1090 sounds but I feel like it is a little overkill perhaps so how would a 1080 compare to it? Also, would it really improve the sound a lot if I were to have 200 going into the center as well if I got a 1095? One thing I would worry about is blowing the center since it probably cannot take the same levels as the mains. (have you guys ever had problems with this?)
Sorry for the long winded question, but thank you very much in advance you guys always seem to have good advice.
