Warfer21, I went with the Rotel RB-1080 amp and the Rotel RC-1070 preamp...for a couple of reasons. I've read and heard good reviews, they are a reputable company and the nearest dealer of any kind to me was the Rotel dealer. I wanted to look at Parasound but the nearest dealer was over 100 miles from me, whereas the Rotel is only about 30. The dealer had the 1080 connected up to a pair of B&W speakers and after fooling with and listening to this amp for an hour or so I thought I did good.

The 80s will be ordered this coming week and as far as a sub, I'm holding off on one for the time being to see if I may like the stereo only system without one.

I have some other accessories to come up with cables and etc...so hopefully here in a little while she'll be up and running. I'll keep you posted!
