Audiofreak Unregistered guest | Howdy! Am putting together a HT system consisting of the following: Usage: 70% music (including SACDs and DVDAs)and 30% movies Centre - Paradigm Studio cc470 Fronts - Studio 60 v3 Surround - Studio 20 v3 Sub - Sceismic 12 Most grateful if someone could give me some pointers on the best matching receiver for the Paradigms. Am narrowing my choices to the Rotel 1067, NAD 773 or Denon 3805. Please feel free to suggest other brands as well. Thanks! |

Unregistered guest | I am running almost an identical speaker set-up, however I am using the Paradigm PW2200 sub. I use a NAD T753 and am pleased with the sound. I also believe you would get great results with Rotel as well. My understanding is that NAD sounds a little mellower than Rotel. Hope this helps. TC |

Anonymous100 Unregistered guest | Do yourself a favour and listen to the Arcam AVR 300 it truly is a great sounding receiver, I also agree with Bleustar. for the money 1st the Arcam, than the Rotel and finally the Nad, you have great speakers don't waste your time with the others... Enjoy |
