Well this is my first foray into buying a decent home cinema sound system and the amp seems to be causing me the most trouble. I've got a Velodyne CHT-10 sub winging my way to be soon from Eric so that's one bit of kit sorted.
The speakers will have to be of the satelite variety I reckon due to the fact in the next few years I'm not sure where i'll be living and chances are it will be a one room flat if i'm lucky as a student. So speakers will most likely be KEF eggs or if I can get enough money together in a few months time maybe the Gallos.
So back to the amp - Currently I've got my eyes on something in the Denon or Marantz range. I've seen the Marantz 6200 available new for £350 and that offers a good 100w per channel but I can't workout if it's any good for a 6.1 system - I'm sure i've read somewhere that it's not proper 6.1. I think it's now been replaced with the 6300 so is the 6200 now old technology?
I'm basically looking for a amp that does 6.1 DTS etc with the most power I can afford - around £350-£400.
Thanks for any help, as i'm starting to get a bit confused here when reading all the jargon filled amp specs!
