2 channel vs 5 channel amp

[rich0372]

Hey all I allready have a rmb 1080 for fronts and now can possibly get a good deal on a rmb 1075 now I was considering two 2 channel amps before this good deal came about { I was told 2 channel amps sounded better} How much better? I know damping is much higher on 2 channel and how much better for center and rear speakers { I do have floor standing surrounds} could someone explain the differences and if it is worth the extra $ for stereo amps or should I get the rmb 1075 Rich

There's already a couple threads bouncing around with this subject matter:

Other than that the 2-channels for surrounds etc is more than you necessarily need but if you've got the $$, it could only sound better...

Now could that money be better spent elsewhere....?
