    If your Yamaha has preamp output, connect that to the M504 input. The M504 is a dual mono design with about 155 wpc, nice amp.

    I suspect the 504 will not sound as good with the Yamaha as it does with the P3. Are you using the Yamaha for home theater?

    I got home last night and connect my amp to preamp of my yamaha rxv-659 and it work..but i like the amp and the p 304 preamp together because for me its sounds more stroger. yeah i am using my yamaha for my home theater 7.1 and i also connect my computer to my reciever to play my mp3s and i heard a humming noise as soon as i turn the reciever on and the computer i unplug the power cord of the computer and still have a humming noise even its running on battery i grounded the chassis of my reciever to the screw of my laptop and humming noise reduce to about 80 %...any suggestion what kind of speakers for stereo that i can match my onkyo m504 amp and p304 preamp.



    thanks
    TERRY

    You could almost use whatever speaker you wish. What is your budget and do you want floor or bookshelf, type of music?

    I like Dynaudio but their entry bookshelf is around $700.00. Paradigm starts at a lower price point and is good value.

    I'm not sure what your question is. You can use any input on your Integra for stereo listening except "phono" that would be strictly for a turntable. If you are wondering which source for CD playback, DVD or CD, you'd have to try each to see which sounds the best to you.
