benhogg@bigpond.net.au Unregistered guest | hey there roger, i would reccommend getting a pre amp/power amp as even the best reciever has to make comprimises to fit everything in the same box. A good Pre amp/ power amp combination is The NAD C162 preamp which sells for around $500-$600 and the NAD C272 power amp which sells for around $700 both these products come highly recommended or you can go for something similar from other brands such as denon or marantz All the best Ben |

Unregistered guest | What if we bumped the amount up a little to say the $4000 range? I am looking at the Z9 and the 59TXi, but would be happy to get advice on separates that would be great for 80% HT usage. (59AVi DVD already) |

New member Username: NathanPost Number: 9 Registered: 01-2004 | Dertman, If you said total amount around $4000 range, then I would reccomment you go with NAD T163 and NAD T973. I just picked them up with Center speaker "Monitor Audio Silver" for $525 and some good cables around $300. Total up around $3925.00 for all. NAD T163 NAD T973 Center speaker (Monitor Audio Silver) 4 Audioquest Diamondback 0.5M (Two cables in the box) The NAD T163 and NAD T973 are 7.1, so would need 7 cables go from Pre-amp NAD T163 to Power-amp NAD T973 Hope this will help!!! |
