Im looking into a integrated amp for my paradigm monitor 9's. Ive been hearing nothing but good stuff from nad and have been looking into the c37 3and the c352. Now, Im not going to be cranking these till I go deaf, however, I want the absolute best perfornamce from my speakers, even when the volume is turned down low. Do I need the 150watts from the C372 to achieve the best tone at both high and low volumes? Or wil the 80watts be more than enough?
I forgot to mention, I am probably going to bi-amp these speakers, so, eventually I will be bypassing the 80/150watts and use the pre-out and split to 2 stereo power-amps or 4 mono blocks. With this in mind, Im starting to think that I dont need the c372. Also, right now Im using a 6.1 Sony AVR that claims 90watts / channel (deffinitly not), so, even teh c352 will be a dramatic upgrade. And I can probably get it for close to $500cad from my dealer.
