rx-v2600 or rx-v659 with 2 Behringer A500
Hi guys, I'm a newbie to this forum, and I would appreciate some help to complete my 7.1 setup. I'm hesitating between a rx-v2600 or a rx-v659 with 2Behringer A500 to drive my Rti10.
here is the setup: Rti10 (front)
Csi5 (center)
Fxi5 (surround)
Rti8 (back surround)
Hsu VTF-3 MK2 (sub)
My room is 14*24*8, and it's for 70% home theater use.
Advice will be greatly appreciated.

That would be one hell of a set up. Since the Rti10's are 8 ohm you can bridge the A500 giving you 500 watts. One A500 per speaker & you will be in HT heaven. The A500's get great reviews especially for the money. Buy them from a dealer that gives a 30 day return policy. Give them a workout & if you don't like the set up send them back. But I'll bet you keep them."2 Channel & 11.2 HT "Two Channel:Magnepan LRSSchiit Audio Freya S - SS preConsonance Ref 50 - Tube preParasound HALO A21+ 2 channel ampBluesound NODE 2i streameriFi NEO iDSD DAC Oppo BDP-93KEF KC62 sub Home Theater:Full blown 11.2 set up. -
I'm not familiar with the A500, but the 2600 certainly has better processing and connections than the 659. I think I'd go with the better receiver now and if you feel the need for an amp down the road, you can do that then.
