I know this is the question that everyone holding an integrated av receiver asks; should I make the move to seperates or enter the $1000+ realm of quality integrated receivers to get by.
I currently have an Onkyo 700 powering Boston Acoustics VR-M60's, VR10, & VR-MX's however during my renovations a set of monopole in-walls VRi560 will be included bumping my setup up to a 7 channel system. I will also be adding an SVS PB2-iSD (shipping and duty is 33.5% here in Bermuda (OUCH))so the PB2+ is probably out.
I have been contemplating a new Denon 3805 or possibly swinging for the fences with the release of the HK7300 but am stuck with the thought of getting the Yammie 1400 as a pre/pro and putting $1000 towards an amp ($2000 total is my absolute max). I could always bi-amp the fronts and use the fifth for the center if I get a 5 channel amp and run the four rears and kitchen speakers off the Yammie. I have been searching audiogon lately but really don't know the more reccommended amps, especially ones which will mate well with the Boston Acoustics.
What do you think I should do? Please note that there are no dealers of this caliber in Bermuda so demoing is not an option; it will unfortunately be going in blind.
Thanks
