Adcom 545 series 1 or 2? and 5.1...
First, I want to try running 4 surround spks in my 5.1 system. I may be buying a large house with a very large (nearly 30"x30") family room. I have two pair of BIC V-52s, I am using one pair as my surround spks currently. If I wire them in parallel I will have a 4 ohm load and I will run them with my Adcom GFA-545 off the surround preout from my Yamaha RX-V995. What do you think of that kind of set up? I know I could get a 7.1 receiver, but I like my RX-V995 and this will be less expensive.
Secondly, I am going to replace my 545 with another one. Would you go with a series 1 or 2, I read somewhere that the series 1 was better.
Thanks,
Brad
