HIGH end 7 channel amp

Musicman, I would agree that Steve and Gemstone would rather see the amp be a perfect fit. (like child adoption!!)

Yes I do have xlr's. The speaker connectors and interconnects unfortunatly above and below one another does not help. They are all criss crossed. I tried bypassing the BPT 3.5 and also brough my Hydra back in with same results.

I also brought my previous amps in and tried them to see if the same effect would happen...it did

I am going to keep playing.

Sunfire Audio makes a 7 channel amp.

Audio Research 150M.7

I actually still have my 5 channel sunfire. Good amp, and I needed the more warm laid back sound at one point but I have done a lot to my system and need something with more detail.

Davemitchell, I am glad you brought up the AR amp. That has been one also that may be decent. My Issue with AR on the amp is they have it priced way too high, or so it seems. $10,000!!!!!!!!!

I checked a little on the Axiom amp, and see its digital. I have to research to understand what that all means in laymans terms. Not sure of the pros and cons of that.

If I dont quickly get the Gemstone to work in my setup I am coming down to Ead 7300 or maybe a Mcintosh mc207. The Mac has the new dynamic power manager and sounds like their best sound multi yet. Anyone have experience with those two amps?

How about Halo? Considered the a51/a21 combo?
