Hey, thanks for the info John. That's exactly what I've been considering, and why I've decided to try both. I figure if an integrated amp sounds that much better, which I'm not sure yet that it will, I'll stay with 2-channel for now. I also have several SACDs and DVD-As and I'm interested in hearing them in multi-channel, but I don't think it's worth investing in a bunch of multi-channel gear just for that. So, that's why I'm A/Bing the two. One of them will go back. Actually, both will probably go back and I'll get a refurb from ecost.
Thanks
