Thanks for all the responses.
Audiotomb: I am currently using a Lexicon DC1 as this system is doing double duty as a home theater. Currently I am using a 5 channel Harman Kardon that is bi-amped to my vr4jrs so my surrounds are currently disconnected. The HK will be used for surrounds and zone two and the new amp will power the mains. My budget has been modified downward to under $1000. Thanks, Wade
