O.K. this much i know, My system sounds great for HT, but ,when it comes to playing 2 channel stereo, Yada Yada!! I know my Rti10s need more power
but how much?
I also have an Adcom speaker selector (coming of the "B" speaker of the
receiver) that goes to 4 more sets of speakers through out the house that i would like more power to (I never run more than 2 sets at a time.)
So am i better off with two 2 channel amps or one big 4 channel amp??
Receiver - Yamaha RX-A2020
Mains - RTi10
Center- CSi5
Surround- FXi5
Sub - DSWpro660

    Personally,I like a big 2ch amp. YMMV. Good luck.:)

    After looking @ my Receiver, I think a 2 channel amp will supply power to both "A' and "B"
    speakers cuz there is only one input and output for the main channel ("Left" pre out & main in (And) "Right" pre out & main in)
    So, How much power (Watts per Ch) do I need?
