Hello, all of your comments have been helpful, and very much appreciated. bdgregory, dtc and shakedown you all seem to know what I was trying to say. You're correct I don't have space in my home for a separate, 2 channel system. My living room must be used for the Hometheater and 2 Channel music. My plan for a system is, keep my B & K 200.7 amplifier and B & W 803 speakers as my mains. I'm looking at Parasound P 5, with a bypass mode as a 2 Channel processor, Parasound Halo A 21 amplifier. Also being consideredis the Parasound Halo Intergrated. To save money I'm also considering ventage ampifiers Carver TFM 55X at 375 wpc or a levinson. How would vintage Amp work with the Parasound P 5. Could you recommend a ventage amp. with 200 or more wpc. Thanks for your response.
