Sunday, February 04, 2007 - 17:42 GMT I know two instances of people pairing Acoustimass speakers with Pioneer receivers. They're happy. I doubt these speakers provide a large load. So, an inexpensive receiver should be adequate.

Monday, February 05, 2007 - 18:50 GMT I wouldn't suggest driving the Acoustimass with a bright receiver, such as a Yamaha. The Acoustimass are bright by nature, and this will accentuate the sound. I recommend Pioneer or Pioneer Elite. I would also recommend taking a look at Integra receivers as well.

Monday, February 05, 2007 - 19:49 GMT The 701's sound totally different than the Acoustimass though. They are warm, where the Acoustimass are bright. Totally different sound :-)

Tuesday, February 27, 2007 - 06:49 GMT I still say that I liked the 601's. Although with the acoustimass systems, I say let Andre have a run at them.

Tuesday, February 27, 2007 - 16:46 GMT The 901's were the ultimate party speakers. Not very accurate but they could rock and take some major abuse.
