This hobby seems to be a slipery slope. I listen to mostly jazz and classical and a few dvds.I dont watch action dvds and I dont know how much better Woody Allen would sound in 5.1. So I bought a pioneer sxv1014 receiver for the AB feature and maybe 5.1 ht.
Then I slipped a little further cause I cant resist a deal. I was going to buy a couple of paradigm studio 20 but I read that meadowlark went under so I just ordered a pair of half price Kestrel 2s. I am not sure if I need a sub with these. Can I later buy a center channel from another brand to go along with the Kestrels or should I buy one of their remaining cc's?
How will the receiver pair with the speakers? I still have the option of returning the pioneer, but I am afraid if I spend too much more, I will be living with my speakers and my wife will be living with her mother. Is there a better amp to power the Kestrels without breaking the bank? . :confused: :confused: thanks Bill
