Goal: To awaken my SB-2's with some real power..


Hey guys,
My HT/Music setup:
Onkyo Tx Sr 602
4 NHT Sb-2's
Rythmik DirectServo sub

The weakest link is the Onkyo, I love the sound of my speakers but the Onkyo has a hard time powering the NHTs. People tell me Nad and NHT go together well. So i've looked into getting a Nad receiver, like the T743 or T753. But they're very expensive and I am still saving money for other things at the moment...like moving out of my house once I graduate from college. One guy tells me that upon switching from a vintage Denon (year 98' model in the $1200 pricerange) to a panasonic sa xr55, he was able to attain much higher volume levels with less distortion running his SB-3s...The price of those digital amps is just right for my budget.The thing is, Id hate to kick myself in the butt afterwards thinking that maybe I should've waited for the Nad.

What would you guys suggest?

Edit: I posted this in the wrong thread, oops. you guys can delete this.


If you don't have a BFD for your sub, get one fast!
If you don't have REW, get it now!
