Very nice choice. Listen for a while and them post your impressions. Aragon has always been on my short list when I decide to change things around. More than likely I'll be purchasing a pair of Monarchy Audio SM-70 Pro's, singled ended class A with zero feedback.

Why are we looking to reduce a subjective experience to objective criteria anyway? The subtleties of music and audio reproduction are for those who appreciate it.

I'm not shocked, but pleasantly surprised that you dove so deeply into the separate amp pool. You will enjoy one of the most solid LSi rigs here on CP. Aragon makes a great amp.
Truly congrats are in order!

I justed setup the Aragon 2007! You guys were right!!!!!!! The increase in perfromance is amazing!!!!!!!!!!! Much more detail and of course significantly more power!!!!
I am still waiting for my now RCA to come in the mail. I may see even more improvment after they are installed. Right I have monster 300s running from the receiver to the amp - not high quality.
I also added a Panamax 5510 - I cannot tell you how much this improved my picture. I had to re-run my video calibration tool!!!TV = WS65611

Awesome! You certainly picked up a beast of an amp! 300 watts into 4ohms through 7 channels! :eek:
I take it you're now a convert to what external amps can do for you. Good. Glad to see you on our side now.
Enjoy your newfound speakers!

If I had that amp powering an LSi setup, I believe I'd listen to SACDs twice, too!
