Hoot's,

I'm using the 1050 in a stereo setup with a pair of Rocket 750's. While I do feed the TV sound through them, this is my primary music listening system - radio (both over the air and internet based), CD, SACD and DVD-A.

When I'm alone, I usually have the volume set to between 40 & 45 and that pair of RS750's just sounds sweet. When I have company, or if the dishwasher is running, I may knock it up to 50 or 55, but very rarely have I felt any need to go louder than that. The 1050 drives these speakers quite well.

I will be honest, I am planning to buy a pair of M200 amps for the system, but I'm not really sure how much of a difference I'm going to notice. I expect my average volume setting will be lower (maybe 30-ish?), but since I haven't heard any obvious compression or "lack of omph" ... ... it's more of a case of I like the idea of extra power and I'm getting a darn good tax refund this year due to the house I bought last year.
