Hello, I was thinking of moving to a 5 channel amp with my A/V setup and was looking for thoughts and suggestions.
I’m currently running a $1k recent Denon receiver, Polk LSi15’s powered off a NAD 2400 stereo amp, and my LSiC and LSiFX are powered off the Denon receiver.
I’m thinking of replacing the 2 channel NAD with a budget 5 channel amp, and continuing to use the Denon as a preamp for now. Is there merit in this plan and would something like the Outlaw 5000 be an improvement or downgrade from the Older NAD 2400? Are there other amps I should be looking at new or used in the $700 range, or do I need to push the budget up? I don’t want my stereo listening experience to be degraded due to this “upgrade” of the other channels. One last restriction, I’m pretty much out of space, so the new amp can’t be much over 6” tall and I can’t just add an amp, it’ll have to replace the NAD.
Thanks for your openions!
