AMP for Panasonic XR45


Does one need a special AMP for a digital receiver?

If so do you guys have recommendations for AMP's for a 5.0 HT? Or can i get buy with just a 2 channel amp to run the mains and dont need an AMP for the surrounds or center.

Thanks.

I paid $340 and I think it's a great bargain. It replaced the well regarded
Rotel 1050 receiver (a former TAS cover story). I'm still using the stock power cord and I've read and been told that it greatly limits the product's performance. I use it in a bedroom system with an Apple G5 connected via Toslink feeding it uncompressed digital music files. The system is setup for background listening and I don't really have a feel for it's absolute performance envelop. All I can really say is that's it's at least as good as the $800 Rotel.
Drubin you can also...if you have digital cable or satellite. Feed your digital output from the cable/sat reciever into the unit. And listen to high quality playback on music and movie channels.
I do have digital cable and TiVo, which may complicate things. The wiring options will be a daunting task if I take the HT plunge.
