Adcom monster amps


Looking at connecting one of the bigger Adcoms to the stereo outputs of my Cambridge 540R Home Theater receiver so I can jam in 2-channel mode. I have a pair of B&W 604 S3s and they obviously need more power when played alone.

Looking at either the 5800/5802 series versus a 565 pair or 585 SE - any thoughts out there? I have also considered the 3-channel 5503 thinking I'd get a much nicer bump with the HT, too, and yet still get what I am looking for with stereo. Again any thoughts would be appreciated, even other brand recs (just hear so much about the value of used Adcom amps when it comes to power). Thanks...

The Adcom stuff will play plenty loud but you might want to rethink pairing them with a metal dome tweeter. I would look for an amp with a sweeter signature sound if it were me.
