which is better? Stereo Amp or Monoblocks?

Dave, yes I'm very happy with the MA500 monoblocks as I use them for home theater, one for rear left, one for rear right, and one for center channel. I think separates is the best when it comes to home theater.

Hi Mike,

I did just the same and was happy with the MA500s in a past HT setup. Seems that those amps were made specifically for that.

You coud use two sterao amps bi wired if you are worried about seperation. I have used both but not for years. Krell was the last. It is easier to lift the monos!

Over generalized rule:
Cost no object:
 usually monos.
Value prioritised: 
usually stereo.
Many exceptions.

I have had both. Stringsteen has it right
