Hello All
I have been using an RSX-972 for a couple of years. Listening habits are
about 80% HT/20% Music. Room dimensions are about 19'/17', and speakers
are Paradigm Titans L/R, Paradigm CC-170 Center, SpeakerCraft
inwalls (rears), and Paradigm 12" Sub.
I don't have any experience with anything beyond the 972, so all input is
welcome.
I also use a Denon 2900 DVD player with this setup.
The upgrade bug has bit, and in my opinion the 972 just seems to be
"lacking". When I say "lacking", I mean the 972 sounds strained at higher
volumes, in addition, it's not very flexible at crossing-over to the Sub.
This month, I have a budget of about $2000 (USA). Note, a speaker upgrade
is planned in August/September.
Enough details - here are my questions:
Would I notice a night/day difference, if I added the 1075 to the 972?
Would I notice an even greater difference, if I used the Pioneer 55Txi with
the 1075?
I can purchase the 1075 for "around" $900, and the Pioneer + 1075 for
"around" $1800.
The reason I mention the Pioneer, is that it falls within my budget.
When pricing the various Rotel pre/pro/receivers + 1075, my budget gets
shot out of the water.
Thanks
