hooking up HT amp
For the better part of a year, I used only the surround channel amps in my NAD T773 receiver while my B&K 3-channel amp was used to drive my L-C-R channels. Absoluely no problems at all. Bill 
Sunfire TGA-7401 vs. Parasound Halo A51
My Klipsch RF-63/RC-64/RS-35 system also has sub 3ohms dips and my Acurus A200FIVE has no problems at all handling this job. My previous B&K amps also were up to the task and passed with flying colors. I do think the Parasound is probably an o... 
amp for b&w 804 "s" with htm4 "s" 200 watts....
I second the B&K amps and did own a 2-channel(EX4420) and a 3-channel (REF4430) and would say they are rock solid amps. The 5-channel(200.5 or 7250) may be a better choice because of the much larger power supply. Good bass, very sweet midrange... 
matrix 803's.. i have chance to buy... worth it?
I am in Kissimmee. I almost jumped on them but my buddy was not around for me to borrow his truck. I did not want to drive 45+ miles each way if they would not fit in my car. It was a screaming deal IMO. Did you get them?Bill

Baranowski,Where are you located? I think I know which speakers you are referring to and they are in great shape from the photos seller sent me. Very good price for the left-center-right speakers.Goodluck with them,Bill 
which flagship receiver
If you can find a Yamaha RX-Z9 in good condition for less than $500.00, go get that baby. Don't forget a forklift to lift it.I use a 2004 NAD T773 flagship receiver for my main HT and multichannel music system. The onboard amps are excellent but I... 
need 2 channel amp
Wmbode,Do you have a price point in mind? With that open ended question you may get suggestions all across the board, $400.00 amps to $4000.00 amps. If you are watching your pennies, you can get good quality used mid priced amps for entry level pr... 
Novice budget audiophile seeks advice on Heresy II
Bob Crites is the man. A recapping might be in order but first experiment with placement, toe-in etc. I did a rebuild on my crossovers and replaced the stock tweeters with a pair of CT-125's on my original Heresy's and they really came alive, huge... 
Surround processor with stereo analog outputs
I have been using a 2004 model NAD T-773 receiver with an Acurus A250 and a 200FIVE amps driving a Klipsch RF-63 system. It does have dual sub outs as well as the current NAD pre/pros and receivers. I am not sure about reliability of the current N... 
Denon Pre Amp no sound
Buyers on Ebay have more leverage in these situations than sellers. Contact seller through Ebay or PayPal and try to resolve it.I did own that Denon combo you have and was really pleased with the way it mated very well with my Klipsch Fortes. Hope... 
Forward soundstage speakers?
I second the Klipsch Heresy's and if you want more bass and still have a smaller profile, snatch up a pair of Kipsch Quartets which occasionally pop up for sale. Bill 
Anyone have experience with the new Acurus gear?
I just got an email from Rick Santiago(cofounder Indy Audio Labs) about an Acurus "trade up" program which they are promoting until March 30. 30% trade in value of older amp towards a new Acurus amp. I own an A250 and a 200FIVE and may just consid... 
Onyko TX-NR809
"Has all the power my B&K has"The Onkyo TX-SR805 of a few years ago did but this model falls short on power. What it lost in true power it gained in modern features, which is pretty common this day and time.With that said, $449.00 for a good p...
