Amp power *also* depends on your room size (bigger needs more power), *and* the volume at which you typically listen to music/movies. Some of us believe that you can *never* have too much power. If you do get the 7100: use the 30 day warranty. That way, if you find it isn't enough, you could always send it back and get the 770. And another option that you might want to think about if you listen to a lot of 2 channel music: 2 200 M-blocks, and the 755. Or even 2 200's and the 7100. The 100W/channel for 7 channels would be roughly equivalent to 140W/ch if you only used 5 channels, because of the single transformer feeding all the channels. Not to make things more complicated than they have to be or anything...

I agree with SH, the largest differentiator between the 950 and the 1066, is the more flexible BM with the 950.
