My current HT equipment is 10yrs old, and I’m looking to upgrade, and reviews of up to date equipment has led me to Outlaw as good value for the money. My budget only allows some upgrades, not new everything! My old pioneer pro-logic receiver is what has to be replaced. I’m running NHT speakers all the way around, and the sub is a SW-3 with matching SA-3 amp. This sub has always performed well in stereo (hooked up to the sub out), but in pro-logic mode I have to turn the volume up to uncomfortable levels to get a sub output signal strong enough to hear some good sub frequencies. The receiver is only rated 125 watts into the two main channels, the center and surrounds are much less. (I know its crappy and has always distorted above half volume) The power output of this receiver is not even close to the sub amps 250Watts, yet the receiver powered speakers can drown out the sub when the sub amp is cranked way up. I’ve done what I can to adjust the levels provided on the receiver down on the other speakers (no sub level adjustment), but still the problem exists. I Have no desire to go past a good 5.1 system, and don’t need a seven channel amp, but I’m worried if I go with the 950-755 combo the 200 watt power output of the 755 will really drown out my sub. I’m not shooting for louder; I want good low frequency to go with the rest at comfortable movie listening levels. Would the 7100 be a better choice, even though I have no need for the extra 2 channels, maybe the lower power output would blend better for my needs, and my VT-1’s are only rated to 125watts. I know I sound pretty ignorant about this stuff to you people in the know, but I still need the advice before I buy!
