Hi all-
I've narrowed my search for amplifiers to two brands. First, the existing setup: I've got a Lexicon MC-1 with B&W NT series speakers all around (9NT, CNT, 4xSNT), in a 7.1 setup. I need to add the power amplifiers.
I've heard good things from many of you about the Lexicon/Bryston amps, so choice 1 would be the Lexicon/Brston NT 512/9B THX and NT 212/3B THX, to drive the 7 channels. That's 120W to each channel.
The other option, recommended to me by some local friends, is the Sunfire amps: the Sunfire Cinema Grand and a Sunfire Cinema Grand Series II. In this setup, I'd have 200W per channel all the way around. I could also get the Cinema Grand and two monoblocks.
Any advice/opinions/thoughts?
Thanks!
