Greetings...

Becuase Upgradeitus is neverending I want to ask your opinions about what I should be saving my money for:

1.  Upgrade 5b's to 5T's
2. Upgrade 90WPC AVR to Onkyo SR805
3. Upgrade 12" Velodyne to 1 Bravus 10D

What do you thinks gonna make the most impact on perfromance?

 

IMHO, the 805 hands down. Granted, my opinion is a bit biased. I have 4 5bs and a 5c. The 805 playes them very loud. I don't always turn on my Bravus 12. My family room is about 3000 cu feet, and the 805 fills it with room to spare.

Even though it will cost us the most money, honestly I think upgrading the 5Bs to the 5Ts will give you the most marked improvement as the extra 5.25" woofer does make a big difference in the speaker's output and soundstage, which I believe are your current concerns. 

However I do think that the 805 is better suited to Aperions than the Yammy, so I would still keep this upgrade as a future consideration and I bet you can get most of your money back for the 661 on the secondary market as it is a popular model.

Thanks...

Yeah..I got the Yammy for $174 so I could probably get $200 on ebay...Then I just need to wait for a pair of A-Stock 5T's :)....I really, really like the way the Onkyo Makes the Aperions sound over the Yammy...So I just have a fascination with the 805....
