Question to WHF - TX8150

[itsme]

I've read the review of the stereo receiver TX-8150. It seems to be an impressive receiver for 2 channel playback.

I have the following questions to the reviewer:

1. Is there a range of suitable / best preforming speakers? (besides the Zensor 3)

2. How does the receiver compare to the best dedicated amp's? (like the A9010 or PM6005 or CXA60)

I hope WHF could add this insight into future reviews.

thnx en cheers.

There was a time when WHF would do side-by-side tests of a range of products (all amps or all CD palyers or whatever) within a price band so that such comparisons could be made. Usually they'd partner them with a few different speakers (or amps or whatever) to give a range of options, again, usually, with the same sort of price bracket, but perhaps with some well outside the price range speakers or amps just for further insight.

Do they still do that?
