I am new to the home audio world. I was hoping someone could advise me on a solution for powering my outside speakers. I have the 1050 connected to a surround system in my great room and it sounds fantastic (Klipsch in wall R&L, in wall LR, CR & RR, center channel and sub). The problem is that I have two outdoor speakers on my deck, which need more power. I would also like to place other speakers throughout the house for music. Can I add the 755 to power these outside and future indoor speakers. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

There shouldn't be a problem doing what you propose. The 1050 as a pre-amp is an avenue that many people take.
It also seems, FWIW, that you could power your already great sounding home theater set up with the 755, and use the 1050 outputs to power the other rooms/areas.

The last response suggests that perhaps its overkill to spend $1000 on an amp for outdoor speakers, especially if that's more more than your spending on your main indoor setup. Personally I use an old $10 kenwood receiver to amp my outdoor stuff, using my main AV receiver to preamp it.
