    And you still have 3.6 on the way, right? I wonder if you have to get another kw500 to maintain your psychosis.

    Actually that's a recommended configuration

    Dual amps = total seperation of signal. But the MF is a dual-mono design, so I wouldn't think it would that much of a difference.

    Me thinks someone is going to be buying a lot of fuses......

    Just think about the surround system you could build using 3.6R's for the fronts and 1.6QR's for the rears. All you need now is something for the center. Of course, a couple of decent true sub woofers wouldn't hurt.

    Except I would stack the 1.6's for the center channel, and get a pair of the MMG's or MC1's for surrounds. Match that with a take-no-prisoner sub and your sure to be in the elite ranks of HT.

    Isn't it EStat who occassionally jaks about HP's MC system? Doesn't it have 20.1's in front and 3.6's in back?

    Mike has an upgrade path!!

    Ahh. I thought Kw500 was a poweramp.

    ^^^ It's an integrated amp. But it appears the two sides are entirely separated, at least in the power section. The power supply even has three separate cords, for the preamp plus the left and right power sections.
    There's an audiophile born every minute. Congratulations; you're right on time.
