I Bought B&W 602S3 for front and rear speakers which are 120W, LCR600 for centre . I have 2 choices: denon 2106 and marantz 5600 which support up to 90w, are they right choice for my speakers? Or I should switch to denon 3806 instead? The room which I've placed the speakers is a 7m x 5m. Please advise. Thank you
great system leo!!! i'm happy that you have made such a fine choice of speakers. you will probably fall in love with the b&w house sound as i did.
the 602 s3's will take some real power to get the job done, i would go with the 3806 if your going to stick to a receiver (pioneer elite 74txi, h/k 640/645, marantz 8500 also options). pre/pro with 5 channel amp would do the trick aswell for a little more dough. options, decisions, etc... have fun Leo
If you want musicality go for Marantz out of the two brands. Jeff is correct, I was driving my 602's with my Marantz SR7300 which did a good job, though with my fronts now connected to a Nad C162/272 combo they do better - they do like power even though the specs say they are fairly efficient. Get the best powered receiver you can afford and you'll get the best from the speakers.
i also bought B&W602s3 all right.. i'll will prefer Marantz SR7500.. infact SR7500 is a award winining receiver.... good price, value for money..... i already order SR7500....
