    That is a very nice AMP and at $1500. My Onkyo retails for the same but it does ALOT more than just "amping". Adding a competive pre-amp to the mix - not to mention I got's to have my 6/7 channel your back to getting what you pay for but in your case your a LUCKY GUY.
    Give use your impressions of the "little" Monster Box. ;)

    not real sure what pre amp i will be going with, i can get a good deal on the bob carver's sunfire with some thing like this and the 2 adcom amps we will be talking some serious 7.1 of course i will have to get a room big enuff for 7 channels of HT but hey things to look foward to...

    the htps7000 seems to keep things strong in the whole system. i added this and the amp at the same time so it is hard to tell what really has changed but, i was surprised that i am running about a 123 volts consistantly. i had figured for my location and the age of my house i would be lacking in that dept. the isolation and filtering is nice idont get any sort of flickering from my tv during big explosions or any thing that is loud and pulls a lot of amprage (so far i have peaked the system at 7.1 amps)

    I have the hts 5100 and CAN assure you that 15 amps is good ta go. I blew nothing up and seriously pissed the wife off:p plus HBombTwo is healthy and growing as far as the Doctor said today and all that happened during the sound checks.
