Hi,
I have a pair of ATC SCM19s. I'm looking at getting the ATC Concept 3 package which includes 2 pairs of ATC SCM11s an ATC C3 Centre and ATC C4 Sub. This will then be a 7.1 with SCM19s as the Front L&R and SCM11s as surrounds. What amplification do you suggest and what pre/pro for the AV/HT side.
I've been thinking maybe Mono Xs for the SCM19s an X Power in mono for the C3C and an X Power in stereo for each pair of SCM11s. Then a DACXP to the Mono Xs for the SCM19s and the Marantz AV8003 as the HT pre/pro (running that into the DACXP for the fronts and directly to the power amps for the other speakers).
What do you guys suggest? Is this a good idea or are there better options/brands/models? Thanks in advance.
P.S. I've also had a suggestion of using the Yamaha Z11 instead of the Cyrus amps and Marantz pre/pro. What do you think of this option?
Regards,
