Try a used Adcom, Rotel, or NAD. You probably don't need more than 60-80 watts for the rear and can get those amps here on the Gon for well under $500. Also, every once in a while I see a '90's era Sony TA-N55 ES amp for a few hundred bucks. This amp is a workhorse (2x110 watts) and doesn't sound to shabby either.
2 Channel Amp for Surrounds: Need Recommendations
Hi,
I need a 2-channel amp to power my back surrounds which are rated at 150 watts.
I plan to bi-amp my VT-2 mains when I add an AV7005 Preamp later this year. My Wired 4 Sound Mini MC-7 puts out 7 x 220 wpc.
I'd like to find a 2-channel amp for $500 or less that delivers about 150 to 200 wpc.
Something that would generate minimal heat is a real plus.
I would love to hear suggestions/ opinions.
Thanks!
