I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions, I am open to $200-$1000 suggestions.
Plan on buying it after I get another job, right now im looking.
I might try running 11ch with my onkyo 818. need atleast a 5ch amp.

I liked the XPA-7 but it was $500 above what Im willing to spend. Perhaps I could look into a used one.

As far as multi channel is concerned the Emotiva is about the only one that falls into the price range your looking at.

125watts is plenty, either the Emotiva or the Outlaw are great options but way at the top of your budget.

speakers is definitely the biggest improvement but if you dont have enough power to play the speakers without distortion its no advantage. your 818 has a beefy amp section but it wont do more than about 80watts all channels driven.
