Looking at your other equipment I don't think your BelCanto would do either of them justice. They like high power amps to get the very best out of them.
Revel C208 or Paradigm Sig C3 as new centre
Hi. I have a chance to buy a new Revel C208 or a Paradigm Signature C3 as a new centre at approx. half price. I will be using it in a 3.1 set-up (B&W PM1 fronts and B&W PV1) with an Oppo 105D as the source and the centre being driven passive bi-amped from my Bel Canto eOne C5i which has a 30 Amp current and puts out 60w 8 ohms and 120 into 4 ohms.
Which of the two centres should I buy and why? Also any thoughts on me bi-amping (using both channels of a single amp with the speaker) as my dealer has recommended this as a way of doubling my wattage but leaving the THD the same.
