MidFi multi channel solution needed for HT.
Well. I pulled the trigger on phase 1. Purchased a Marantz 7704 for a good deal.  Will be auditioning some multichannel amplifiers once my 7704 arrives.Any short list of AC power cords you can suggest that won't break the bank?  Not looking for $5... 
At what point ( min or max value ) does av/preamp output voltage not make a difference?
Thanks for the feedback. I was speaking specifically of preamp preouts for use of external amplifiers. Its my understanding that the higher the preamp output voltage -- it allows the preamp to take full advantage of all the power amplifier X is ca...

I know you have the Parasound amps. I will try and find a dealer to go and audition them.  If I am unable to do so, and I have to make another choice -- do you think the Anthem or Rotel would be a better fit than NAD or Parasound for my B&Ws?I...

In addition. Not an after thought. Just forgot to ask... In your opinion which solution ( which brands ) has the best chance of complimenting my B&W CDM9NTs?  I am open to the idea of getting an avr and purchasing a 2ch amp for LR use.  So I a...

tpreaves.I would prefer to 'wait' to upgrade but I have failing equipment and need to insert a solution that I can live with for possibly the long term.  I realize I may be in the minority - since I don't upgrade or change equipment every few year...

auxinput.1. Short answer. No. But being that the equipment is not in its own dedicated space ( great room w/kitchen ) I was under the impression some RC would be beneficial. And as I understand it -- ARC and Dirac are far superior to AudXT.  2. Ye...
