I hope this is the correct forum.
I am not ready to upgrade my 1050 at this point (wife has mentioned the word "divorce" in conjunction with my budgeting for A/V toys) and am really happy with it in any case. I have my eye on an Outlaw 7 channel setup that will be procured as soon as sufficient goodwill has been accumulated (or at such time as we can get one of the kids adopted by Trump).
Here's the rub. I recently came into a pair of gorgeous speakers that I would like to drive as fronts. I already have a pair of fronts. I want to drive both sets simultaneously.
Is there some technical solution to driving an additional set of main speakers?
Can some good soul outline my options, if any?
Thanks!
M1iS

Thanks, gonk.
Do you think a used M200 might fit the bill? I might be able to sneak that under the wife's radar screen, budgetwise!
While I'm on that topic, what is a fair price to pay for an M200, assuming excellent condition.
Thanks again.

The M200 is a mono amp, so you would need two of them......higher budget!

Ahhh...so that's why people were looking at me funny when I insisted I only needed only one M200.
Even if I sell my hair to a wigmaker there's no way to shake that kind of cash loose. Hmmm. Any thoughts on a specific amp for this application?

Thanks, Gonk. I also appreciate your PM. Sorry to see you live in Memphis! I served on NSA Millington and could never quite get around to liking Memphis much. Thanks again.

M200s have been selling for $200 each plus shipping lately on ebay and audiogon.
