Chris / Eugin: The main difference in sound of the 525 compairing it with the Denon 3300 is in the center channel. I think that the sound in the center channel is more clear. With the Denon the sound in the center was muddy. I played a CD that I know very well (Fleetwood Mac - Rumours) and...
Can anyone suggest wich would be the correct sub crossover setting for Paradigm Moni Monitors, CC350, and Atoms? With my previous receiver it was easy (it was fixed). Now, with the HK AVR 525 I have several options. What do you think? Thanks, Eduardo
John: You asked: "Have you done any SPL measurements of various frequencies 90 Hz from your listening position?" How is this achieved? Besides the RS meter, what else do I need? Thanks, Eduardo
There is something that I can not understand. Why a preamp cost, for example, $1,000 while a receiver consists of a tuner, amplifer and preamp for the same amount of money? Less internal parts for more money. Is there a logic explanation? Remember that I am talking about pieces of equipment of...

I have been using the Audio Source Amp Two (bridged) to drive my SVS 25-31CS for the last six months without a problem. The volume is about 3/4 and the sliding doors of my family room almost fall down during a bassy scene. Try Titan AE and you will know what I am talking about...
Zbigniew:
Thanks for your response. Now I agree with you. Better speakers can produce better sound in this particular case than better amplification.
Anyone has another point of view?

I am looking for a way to improve the sound of my system. I have a Denon AVR 3300 receiver and Paradigm speakers (Mini Monitor, CC-350 and Atom). Also I have a SVS 25-31CS. Will I hear a difference (improvement) if I use it as a pre-pro and add Parasound HCA 855A? The Denon is rated at 105 wpc...
Can I connect a power amplifier to a powered sub? If the internal amplifier is damaged can I bypass it and use another amp? If yes, how?
Thanks,
Eduardo
