I am new to the forum...and would first like to say hi to everyone and thank you for your help.

My dilemma ( besides not being a millionaire)

I have a Harman kardon AVR7000. I will for cost purposes be using this for my processor for now, and would like to add more power to the current Paradigm Studio speakers i have. (only 5, i do not plan on getting 7 channel surround due to space limits.) I am wondering if this 7500 model is my best choice or should I be looking at a different model?

I have also been told to look at Anthem and ATi amps for my purpose as well. So I am a huge movie watcher with the wife, and friends, but listen to music almost daily as well. I just ned some honest feedback on this. If I choose any amp I will be waiting for a sale since a baby on the way is making cash tighter and tighter !

Thanks to you all for your help
