Will be using my 5 channdel Rotel 985 (or something like that) MKII. Although its on my upgrade hit list, I'll probably have to live with them for awhile.

Hope it pairs well..

I already have a pair of ATI 2505 amps(10 X 250w into 4 ohms) and a Crown K2 waiting for the 950 to arrive. Otherwise, I'd opt for the 770 amp without question.

I'll be using an ATI 1505 five-channel amp (150+ watts/channel), an older Denon stereo receiver to drive the center back speakers (temporarily), and a Samson 700 pro-amp (350 watts/channel) for the passive subwoofer.

I'd list all my speakers, but unfortunately right now they're a bit of a hodge podge of makes and models (classic Advents and newer Polk RT's and a DIY sonotube sub w/dual 12" drivers-- I am using a regular vertical speaker for the center as I've never liked the boxy/congested sound of most so-called center channel speakers).

Really would like to get a new, identical speaker set up one day soon. Also would like to start using monoblock amps for their convenience (great soundstaging, no interference or cross-talk, and who knows how many channels the next new audio format will have). The Sherbourn monoblocks look interesting and might do the trick for driving the front left/right speakers and use the ATI for the center and surround speakers as a start.

I'll be using a Marantz MM-9000 (150 x 5) and a Parasound HCA-1000A (125 x 2).

I'm thinking about getting rid of the Parasound and buying 4 Marantz MA-500 monoblocks (125 x 1) and biamping my PSB Status Silver i's.

Right now I'm using an Adcom 555 to drive my mains and another 555 to drive my two subs. I'm currently using a Marantz MA700 on my center and my rears are powered by my Yamaha DSP-A1. When my 950 arrives I'm going to use an HK Citation 22 (just had repaired) to drive the subs, I'll leave the 555 for the mains and move the other 555 to drive the side surrounds. The MA700 will most likely stay on the Center and I'll purchase a new (used) amp for the rear surrounds. I may chuck it all for the 770 when it arrives.

Well, If I ever get the money for a 950 and the necessary amp/amps I will pair it with one of the following:

5 nOrh Le Amps
Parasound HCA1205A
Outlaw 750

I'll be using my B&K EX442 dual-monoblock (220 wpc) for the mains. Not sure what I'm going to use for the rears and the center.
Some sort of 3-channel amp obviously.

Although if they don't kick it out by the end of the month I may just buy something else. Maybe a 1050, maybe something else.
Perhaps stick with a pure audio pre-amp.
