My current HT setup has a Marantz SR8002 receiver (125W per channel) powering Mythos ST fronts, Mythos 10 center and Mythos Two for rears. I would like to get an opinion if adding a B&K ref 200.7 amp will 1. Improve the quality of sound (music but mainly movies)? 2. Is is worth the investment? 3. If there is a better amp than B&k. I have seen a similar thread but with both the receiver (150W/Channel) and amp being B&K. I appreciate if anyone can provide feedback on the proposed combination.
Both Marantz and B&K have been described numerously as sounding warm to neutral. With Klipsch speakers, which can tend to be harsh or bright, both my B&K and Marantz really tame that brightness while maintaining plenty of punch and seperation.
