Hello there
I'm looking for some advice on a suitable upgrade path for my home theatre system. I currently have the following 6.1 setup:
Isol-8 Mini sub 2
Arcam CD73
Denon DVD-2900
Denon AVR-3803 driving -
Monitor Audio Gold Reference 20's (Fronts)
Monitor Audio Gold Reference Centre (Centre)
3 x Monitor Audio Gfx surround speakers (Surround Left/Right and Rear Centre)
QED Silver Anniversary Bi-Wire cabling
Precious Metals interconnects throughout
REL Quake II (Subwoofer)
I'm listening to a 50:50 split of music and HT and I realise that I'm limited now by the amp for both.
I have decided from listening to some equipment (mainly 2 channel) and recommendations that I would like to move onto Rotel equipment, initially using my 3803's line outs to a Rotel power amp(s), then replacing the 3803 in a few months with a RSP-1068/1098.
Anybody got any recommendations (leading question :T ) as to what amp would drive these speakers well, and what combinations would work well with the 6.1 setup?
Price is only as much of any issue as I guess it is for anyone, if I spend more money on amps now, I may have to wait a little longer to get my processor, but ultimately the decision I make now I will be living with for quite a while (or else you'll hear about it on divorce court).
Thanks in advance.
Tony
