Buy a good intergrated amp, more bang for the bucks.
Moving to separates
Does anyone have an experience they'd like to share about going from just an AVR or integrated to using external amp(s)? My Integra AVR has 100 W per channel (class AB), all channels driven, and sounds very good, so it is not clear to me that there is any advantage to connecting its preouts to a separate amp. Might be a total waste of money. Please mention your specific equipment. Thanks!
