I'm using the new NAD C720 BEE 50 watt per channel receiver and this is unlike any other 50 watt per channel I've ever owned or heard. I'm also using a Hughes AK-500 Sound Retriever which is no longer made and makes a world of difference. I'm also using the Oppo Universal DVD Player which plays everything well. The speakers are the Athena LS 500B's 6.5" 2 way's along with the Athena AS-P4100 Subwoofer which for the price is a hard to beat combo. Round it up by using all Cobalt Cables with the exception of the Monster cable for the subwoofer. The retail is higher than what it can be purchased for and at my price of $1463 it sounds great and there's nothing that will come close in this price range!
