This is my current system: AV: Pioneer BDP-LX08 Bluray / Yamaha V4600 Amp / Focal Electra Front 1027Be / Centre 1000Be / Rear 1007Be / REL505 Sub. Music: Naim CD5x & Hicap / Naim SuperNait & Hicap. I want to upgrade to HD sound and am looking to get the new Rotel processor. I want to keep things Naim, where I can, and would like to use the 175 to power my centre & rears. Will the 175, at 50w, have the power to complement my SuperNait? Regards, Huw

Ok I just bought a Sony Blu-ray player and every movie looks really bad with lots of ghosting. I thought I set it up correctly. Am I missing something ? I have a 46" Sony XBR4, Sony BDP-S350 Blu-ray, I use HDMIs that are 1 meeter in length.
