Power Amp & Integrate Amp


Hi,

 

I currently have a Marantz Pre-amp that supports 11.2 configuration and a Monolith 5 channel amplifier. My current setup is 5.1.

I am looking to add 2 Atmos speakers for a 5.1.2 setup. Can I add an Integrated Amp to this setup to power the 2 additional speakers? Will it be effective? Or I should be looking at Power Amps only.

Any recommendation for Integrated Amp or Power Amp for my current setup will also be appreciated.

 

Thanks

What you need is a 2 channel power amp.   Schiit Vidar could  do the job.

Or a 4 channels power amp. If you think about more channels in the futur :

ATI  class D  

An integrated amp. with home theater bypass would only serve if you want

high quality 2 channels for music( front speakers )   AND  home theater capabilities  when needed. 5.1.2
