I see some folks have read my post. Unfortunately no responses yet. I'm hoping someone out there can shed some light. How about if I approach it this way....
Is it possible that the speaker sensitivity is too high for the amp? They are rated at 8 ohms. Are they not presenting enough load?
Is the preamp not a good match for the amp? I have no experience matching them. Its always been pioneer receivers up until now.
Are the speaker cables too light? I believe they are 12 awg overall but they are split into interal biwire. Does that lower the awg?
The amp doubles and triples its wattage from 8/4/2 ohms, 125, 250,500 watts. Is my wall outlet the problem? Do I need a power conditioner?
I know the CD player has some miles but I also have an Oppo dvd player that is newer. The Rotel, ($1200.00 When new) still outperforms it.
Can anyone answer help these questions.
Thanks again!
