I have an Onkyo tx-8555 receiver that was muddy when I tried to replace my Yamaha a-32 (140wpc/ 8 more at 4).
So, I went for plan B. I have an Adcom GTP-400 driving an Onkyo M-5010(75/8 but only 65/4). It sounds very clear.
I sent the Tx-8555 out for a re-bias, should punch it up to good as new. I did it to send the Adcom out, one of the input's doesn't work, probably a contact, or cold solder, and I didn't want to be left without tunes.
Input is CD and a Pro-Ject carbon DC with a Blue Point No 2. Output it thru a pair of Ohm Walsh 2 with Gen 3 drivers (6 ohm +-). The A32 drove the Ohms when they had the original 4 ohm drivers.
So, should I use the Tx-8555 sell Adcom/Onkyo (GTP-400 (150), and the M5010 (150), Use the Adcom/Onkyo sel the tx-8555 (200),
The third choice is to get an Adcom GFA-545, and sell the Tx-8555 (they're going for 200 on Ebay) and the M5010 (150), almost covers a rebuilt Adcom.
