2. Pass Lab X 250

Personally, I have a 2CH/HT setup and I have an amp for the fronts and an amp for the center and surrounds. I think the most critical is the front channel amp.
I also have a TM for processor, but have the new 8000 and it is working really well with my Classe CA3000 on fronts and an Adcom on the others. Just something to think about.

You didn't say what speakers you were using. It makes a critical difference to know what speakers are being used to make some recommendations. In reality, there is no "best amp" as a blanket statement. It all works in the context of what other associated equipment you're using, in regards to making amp sellection (not mentioning out-put/room size considerations). If I know better what you're using on the speakers, I can make a few recommendations. Also, is that used or new for the amp?
I'm using classe 300 as monoblocks for the front left and right, and a single sunfire cinema grand for the surrounds and center. In stereo configuration they were good, but much more liquid when bridged. My speakers are thiels. 300's come up used around 2 grand each. Lots of punch with the warm sound of tubes (they are solid state). My set up is a home theater 7.1 using a Lexicon MC12.
That's my input.
