I reciently upgreaded from Bose to paradigm studio speakers, all i think I have left is the receiver/amp. Just waiting for those speakers to arrive.
Will a Yamaha HTR-5940 work well with Paradigm studio 60s, CC570? I purchased this receiver for my parents but it is too small for their system now (5.1 to 7.1).
So now I have Yamaha 5940 that is practically new. When I purchased it I thought it was 105 watt per channel. It is actually 85 watts per channel. (85 watts at 20hz-20khz, and 105 at 1khz, what ever that means)
I’m willing to spend around $1300-1500 on a new receiver or separate amp (the 5940 does have preamp out) to ensure that the paradigms sound as good as they did on the Yamaha My setup will be a 5.1 to start and eventually will upgrade to a 6.1 or 7.1. But if I can get by with the 5940 I can use that $1500 on other fun toys or save.
I do have a 1080p 47 inch lcd. HDMI and all of the extras that now come with a new all in one reviver would be nice but I’m not sure I need the video switching or up-converting. Just want great Stereo and Home theater surround that will not be obsolete when the come out with HDMI 1.3.
And a receiver/amp that will sound good when playing MP3s (assuming that a receiver can help in this area).
Thanks in advance for your advice and opinions.
