Gonk, thanks for the good advice as always. I spoke with Steve today and after asking his advice about many different aspects of the combo, I ordered the 990/7700 with xlr cables. I see that you have paradigm speakers. Are you happy with them and what model might you consider if you were upgrading? I currently have the mini monitors for the l/r and the cc330 for the center channel with the ps1000 sub. I learned today that the tuner will not automatically memorize the stations. It is a typo in the manual for the 1070.

I am thinking about buying the 1070 receiver since my old receiver has blown up. I would like to know if this receiver will run well with my 600 series B&W speakers. Also I have a Definitive Technology 15" subwoofer (1500TL +)

Hi, the speakers I want to use have a sensitiviy of 87db and my room wil be 10ft (w) * 15 ft (l) * 7 ft (h).
Do you think the 1070 can handle that , esp. if I use a powerd sub?
Liz

Liz: I know that the person who bought me my 1070 matched it to the speakers I already owned (my B&W's). They're rated at a sensitivity 90dB and the purchaser's opinion was that the 1070 was practically "made" for my speakers. He was right. My room size is larger than yours (14ftWide*16ftLength*7ftHigh) and the 1070 absolutely powers my setup w/ amazing clarity and precision. Band of Brothers artillery barrage scenes...what...you might as well have BEEN in Bastoge.

Thanks RedsinpA. Looks like i wil go for my friends Alon II Mk2 as they are true Audiophile speakers whith a 87db sensitivity. In my listening area, part of a larger room, I should be able to power them up without worry. I am also hoping to one day use a powered Sub, HSU stf-2 or Vtf-2 so that should free up some extra kick. Also, I plan on getting a 3930ci Denon dVD player and having it modified with a discrete output stage that I am told can drive a set of headphones!
