Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Home Theater Outlaws & Five M80's Conclusion (long post)

I wondered that, but Tharkun mentioned earlier he had tried subbing a QS8 onto the offending channel. It seemed to spread the problem around a bit if I remember correctly -- multiple channels went into shutdown but it took longer.

I'm going to go back and re-read all the posts again, we might be missing something, but it sure sounds like Tharkun has tried everything.

Just returned, been a long 8 hours, listened to two differant systems, and did make a purchase, but going to grab food, and then post, till then take a guess at which brand.

Ok I'll take a stab at it. You grabbed a rotel 1095 because Wid was so charming.

I was gonna guess the B&K.

It has been a stressful day, so will write a review of the B&K audition verses the Parasound, the only two brands I have within a reasonable driving time, in the morning when I have a refreshed brain. But I'm sure I will have many here that will think I didn't make a good decision, I went with the Parasound Halo's, will be a week or two before they arrive, so will have time to re-think my decision many times. :-) I really have appreciated all of the input, and hopefully once I post my reasons for the choice, it will be a bit more clearer as to why.

So...what parasound processor/amp did you pick up?

Geez, brain is fried....went with the A52 ( 5 chan 400watts@ 4ohms) A21 (2 chan 400watts@4ohms) and the C2 processor.

You do mean the A51,the A52 is 225 @ 4 ohm.

Geez...brain is really dead, yes, A51, thanks for correcting me. ;-)

That's some really fine equipment you picked out.I hope it serves you well.
