| Integrated amplifier search @s7horton The Naim Uniti Nova is capable of handling low impedance loads with no problem. In my bedroom setup I have the Nova, first I had it paired with the B&W 805 D3 standmount speakers and now with the Sonus Faber Olympica 1 standmount spe... | |
| How can I connect a pre-amp to my Onkyo TX N676 since it doesn't have a pre-out for amp No, your Onkyo receiver will not be able to drive a 4 ohm speaker load properly. You would need a dedicated power amp. | |
| Integrated amplifier search +1 on the Naim Uniti Nova suggestion. I happen to own the Nova for my bedroom setup. It’s highly musical sounding unit. Great all-in-one box solution that does not compromise sound quality and musicality. It is a digital streamer/DAC/integrated am... | |

| How can I connect a pre-amp to my Onkyo TX N676 since it doesn't have a pre-out for amp So were you saying that your Onkyo av receiver does not have pre-outs for you to connect to a dedicated stereo preamp with HT bypass?

| New Krell K-300i Class A iBias Integrated Changes! I would avoid getting a newer Krell stuff especially after Dan D'Agostino left in 2009. Today Krell isn't the same anymore. Besides one of their chief main designer recently left Krell. Krell is going down the rabbit hole. | |
