I have a bryston b60 driving my cdm1nt's & am quite happy with it...in fact, it sounds alot better than the Denon 5800 receiver that I heard the 7's on at the local shop. If the integrated has a HT passthrough then you get the best of both worlds...in the $1000 range you will probably get alot of votes for classe & electrocompaniet also from what I have seen. Good luck...
I need advice on my first step into separates. B&W
I have an Onkyo 696 with B&W 7nt in front and 1nt in back. Id like to buy a 2 channel amp to enhance 2 channel listening and use the onkyo as the pre/pro. Eventually picking up a 3 channel for center and rears. Or maybe 3 then 2 or even 5 channel. Everyone says Rotel but what are other choices. Id like to spend up to $1000.
TIA
Mike
