What 5ch or 3/2 to match Aragon 8008bb?


Hi everyone, I'm hoping to solicit your advice; I'm having a hard time finding any answers to this question.

I'm picking up an 8008bb Aragon for my mains, but i'm running a 7.1 system, and need to get amplification that will match well with the 'bb'.

Any suggestions? I've heard the acurus a200x5 is voiced similarly; and I've thought an 8008x3 for the center and 2 side surrounds, with a cheap amp for the rear surrounds might work as well...

I'd like to keep it around $2k total if I can, but I'm not sure if that's possible.

Thanks for any advice you can give!

I've got an Acurus A200x5 and I've had zero complaints with it. Internally, it looks remarkably like its Aragon equivalent except that it only has RCA inputs. This isn't surprising since they were both made by Mondial Designs. Check out the Klipsch website for the current Aragon offerings since they bought Mondial Designs. Why not get the 7 channel amp that Aragon has out now?
