Audiophanatik:
Yea, i probably will have gone through lots of equipment by the time im 40, though maybe not so much when im living in a dorm room or when im a starving grad student ;)
Im tossing around several ideas for powering the dahlquists, and right now i think the best deal might be to get a seperate pre-amp/amp system and switch the speakers back and forth between that for 2 channel stuff and the reciever for multi-channel. Ive been looking into the audiosource amps (amp two goes for $250 on amazon) and the general opinion in the forums here seems to be that they are a good, dependable, cost effective power amp. I would probably just get one to start with at 80wpc stereo, then get another later and monobridge them for 200wpc. Once i found a pre-amp i would just find a way to run it and the surround reciever together, either with a switch, or by manually changing the wires. I looked at the audiosource pre-amps too, but im not sure about those quite yet. Everyone keeps recommending the adcoms, so i think ill check those out. All this is just dreaming for now, though, its gonna be a little while before i have some disposable income for all this.
By the way, lets just consolidate this discussion weve been having on two threads to just this one ;)
