I have an older one, the 3.5 a. I have 11A’s, and the are doing double duty in our living room for stereo and home theater. I have a Denon 4300 receiver, and use a McCormack amp with the pre outs. The sound in stereo is not as good, as the Denon is probably the weak link in the chain. The home...

I use a Musical Fidelity integrated for 2 channel, and use the HT bypass for Denon avr. I have external amps also, but the integrated was a better option in my system.
