Hello all,
I have an Marantz SR7011 AV receiver and B&W CM9S2 speakers with CM5 as surrounds. I heard these speakers this week combined with a Rotel RA-1570 Integrated amp and they sounded much better this way in stereo when playing music than when I drive them with my Marantz.
Can I add this to my setup and still use the Marantz for playing movies with surround sound and can I use the Rotel to drive my front 2 speakers for playing music?
I know the Marantz has "pre outs" for the front speakers but since I am a noob to this I am not sure if that is the correct way to set this up?
Also can the Marantz deliver the source to the Rotel (Spotify or Airplay)?
Any help is appreciated.
