size is everything (Pioneer SC-LX81)

[admin_exported]

I want to upgrade my system to match my LX508D panel and I am considering the Kef KHT3005SE speakers, the Pioneer BDP-LX71 bluray and SC-LX81 AV Amp. The problem is that the racking will only take a max size of 200mm (H) and 430 (D) (including interconnects). Can anyone suggest an alternative amp that would match this setup? I've tried every solution I can think of to get this amp to fit!

The height should not be too much of a problem, although you may have little space for ventilation. The depth is probably more awkward. The Yamaha 863SE is 171mm H, 393mm D and 345mm W. I looked at dimensions of a few others, and one or two are a shade less tall, but a few are over 400mm D too.

Hi Sarpal,

just out of interest, which did you choose first, the SC-LX81 of the KEF speaker package?
