Well for under $2K, I'd strongly recommend the Rotel RMB-1555. It's a 5 channel HT and Music amp providing a conservative 120 watts/channel into 8 ohms ALL channels driven. It has a huge toroidal transformer. I should know. I have one and purchased it new earlier this year. It's in the $1600.00 area. For the price, this has to be one of the best values in the high end audio market. Otherwise you're looking easily at $2800.00 for 7 channel amps such as the NAD T-977. This would have been my other choice but just couldn't justify the higher price with a son in college !!
Multichannel amp...
Long story short . I sold off my HT pre/pro and multichannel amp to separate the HT from the stereo. I'm now in a situation where we really need my stereo space "back", so I will once again have to integrate my stereo into my HT My pre-amp doesn't have HT pass thru so that's not an option.
What multichannel amp would match my Mark Levinson 331? I need to stay below $2k and used is definitely an option (even preferred).
For the time being, I will need to use my Onkyo TX-NR1010 with the amp-out but will add a dedicated pre/pro as funds becomes available (thinking something like Cary Cinema 12 or the like 2-ch quality is crucial)
