Bronze Member Username: MillerwMuskokaCanada Post Number: 22 Registered: Nov-08 | Ok! So I just got surprised with two Axiom M22 v2 Bookshelfs and an Axiom EP125 v2 Subwoofer for my birthday and I'm looking for some advice on what kind of receiver to look into. I'm assuming it should be some kind of a stereo, but I don't care about the tuner and it'll only be used for music so maybe an int amp of some kind? It's gonna be used in a bedroom (16 x 16) but I want it to shake the whole house. I'm looking to spend $500sh CDN, thanks a lot!

Bronze Member Username: MillerwMuskokaCanada Post Number: 23 Registered: Nov-08 | Nice! Thanks! I like the look of the 325 a little better, I'm just wondering if someone could give me a nice step-by-step on how I would hook my sub up to it? I don't see a sub out and I wanna make sure I don't have to buy anything else on top of this for my sub. http://nadelectronics.com/products/hifi-amplifiers/C325BEE-Stereo-Integrated-Amp lifier/images Also, HK makes a similarily priced stereo receiver that has digital inputs. I'll be using the setup with my computer, which has optical digital output. I'm wondering whether or not it's going to make any real difference in quality. http://www.harmankardon.com/product_detail.aspx?Region=USA&Country=US&Language=E NG&cat=REC&prod=HK%203490&sType=C Thanks a bunch! |
