Hi all
I've got some Monitor Audio Silver 6 front speakers as part of 5.1 set up, see signature below. Currently connected to my AV receiver (Yamaha RX-V2065). my listening is about 70% music 30% films. I'm thinking of adding a stereo amp with HT Bypass. At the moment I use Pure Direct on the Yamaha. does sound pretty good. I was hoping that by adding a decent stereo amp I can hopefully improve the SQ during stereo only playback. would the Hegel H80 (75watts into 8 0hms) be powerful enough to run my speakers rated at 60-150 watts, sensitivity 90dB. I did read somewhere that these speakers thrive on a decent amount of power. I don't play them loud. occasionally i do like a bit of volume but nothing overboard. I have a budget of £1500. other amps I've looked at are Peachtree nova 150, Creek 100a, and Exposure 3010s2d (over budget). Any thoughts and other suggestions welcome
thanks bruny
