Adding 2 channel goodness to existing reciever
I have Marantz SR7005 which has preamp out. I am planning to go with Vandersteen 2Ce Sig II or Treo along with Vandersteen VCC-5 . I preferably want to keep using existing Marantz so that I can use it for my 5.1 HT.
How do I do this?. Can I just bypass the 2 channel out of Marantz and just add new amp for both the channels?. Or I have to go with a new preamp with HT bypass and connect the CD/DAC to the preamp?.
I am planning to start with Rogue Audio/Prima Luna/Emotiva/Cary Audio/Pass Labs etc. Can I go with amp that can put out more than 160 watts per channel?. I was wondering if that can damage the speakers?.
I also want to try out Vinly in a year or two without have to change the amp.
Any advice is appreciated.
