Ok so I've been lurking an mulling around here for way too long.
(Look at my join date?!)
The opportunity has come up where i may be able to purchase a 1575 amp.
I test drove it last Xmas, and although I wasn't completely happy with the accompanying processor, i have to give the amp a HUGE thumbs up.
My upcoming condo won't have the largest space. In fact, my listening room/HT is about 20x16'.
I'm quite intrigued by the 1575 and excited.
But, does anyone else feel it might be overkill?
would I be better served by getting the 1565?
I, truthfully, was under the impression that more watts would serve me better for lower volume listening. I want the impact, Tings, Zings, Booms, and wows.
But I don't want to flex my neighbour's drywalls.
I also want this to be the "end all/be" all amp. The last one I'll ever have to buy.
Am I right in thinking that this one can serve most of my purposes?
a little about my system:
Speakers: Paradigm Studio 40/20/470 v3
Sub: SVS sb+12
BD: Panny Bd-35
Power: PureAV Pf-30
IC's: AR Master's
HD65 Optoma on 102" BOC
(potentially an ERC-1 and UMC-1 from Emotiva)
I have the means to pick it up. And I HATE buyers remorse.
So I guess the question I'm asking is: Should I just get it?
By the way, anyone have any links to 1575 reviews?
I found a couple reviews from England, that love theirs....
(yes, The Force, i read yours, and I'm envious!)
