| Re: Another Receiver Advice Inquiry! In reading through the thread on 2 channel amps and pre-amp benefits over receivers, it seems that some of the commentary indicates that separates do not have a sonic advantage over the newer well powered receivers, as they used to.
While that thread talks about 2 channel mostly, I'm wondering what the consensus is regarding exclusive HT usage with 5.1? For instance, are there any listening advantages to something like the Emotiva separates (200wpc) over the Onkyo 875 (140wpc) used exclusively for 5.1 HT, never for music or anything else? The question assume the Emotiva processor has the latest decoding features. |
