5/6 channel amp with laidback,soft, smooth trebble

Audio Refinement

I don't know if I would characterize it as totally laidback.... and based on your other components, I'm not sure of your budget.... but a Butler Audio TDB-5150 will do wonders for your system... www.butleraudio.com

It sounds like your fairly matched up for a medium grade system. We've all been there and we've all wanted more. It's going to be tuff getting a great Home Theatre sound from where your at, It took me years to get my Theatre just right, not to mention ungodly amounts of money.

I would think about adding a sub-woofer or two but ultimatly every piece will eventually need to be upgraded and probably more than once. Try to get an idea of your dream system and what you need to build it. Then spend the next few years slowly upgrading towards it. When you get there you'll know it, You'll be in awe everytime you watch a movie. It's been almost two years now and I haven't had to change a thing about my system (OK I upgraded my transport)

I know this doesn't help your current situation much but I assure you if you continue down the road all your audio dreams will come true. It takes time, tinkering and money. I guess that's why they call it a hobbie.

I will say your on the right track, isolate your problems and solve them as you go, good luck and let us know how it's going.

Call me crazy but I use three B&K ST-140's.....ahhhhhh those sweet mids.....don't need bass,my subs do it all.....make sure you use a dedicated circuit.....what a great hobby...
