matthew2 Posted March 7, 2002 Share Posted March 7, 2002 Im wanting to buy a reciever soon, and am very concerned about 2ch performance. Does anyone have experience with either the AVR120, HK's 2ch reciever, ( 75 watt one) and how the sound QUALITY match up to each other. If you had to have either for music on;y, and they cost the same , what would you choose? I ask this because although I love surround sound, many at this forum say quality is more important the quantity. I agree with that also. -- second question. How would an Outlaw 1050 compair to the two listed above? Im planning on buying RF3II's. Thanks! ------------------ Matthew Klipsch Rocks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soundog Posted March 8, 2002 Share Posted March 8, 2002 While I'm not familiar with the receivers you mention, I can tell you the Outlaw 1050 provides top notch sound quality. It would work very well with any of the Klipsch reference speakers and, of course, would also provide A/V surround options. Great customer service also. ------------------ Soundog's HT Systems This message has been edited by soundog on 03-08-2002 at 06:20 AM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregorius Posted March 8, 2002 Share Posted March 8, 2002 I have and older HK AVR20II that I use for 2 channel and my HT it is 60w x2 and it sounds very good on my Klipsch LaScala's. You would have to spend alot more money to get a better sound, and then if you decide to go HT, you would have a good start. ------------------ HK AVR20 II Toshiba DVD 32" Toshiba TV Odyssey Stratos 1976 LaScala's Front L&R KV-1 Center KG 1.5 Rear L&R KSW-12 Sub Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jad5 Posted March 8, 2002 Share Posted March 8, 2002 I own the Outlaw and have heard the HK receivers and it isn't close. The Outlaw is much more transparent and musical. It sounds glorious with the RB-5's. Utterly huge soundstage and dynamics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soundog Posted March 8, 2002 Share Posted March 8, 2002 JAD- That has been my experience with the 1050 and receivers I have been able to compare it to. ------------------ Soundog's HT Systems Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
