I am currently running

RXV861 7.1
RTI A6
RTI A5
RC 85I rear surrounds
PSW 505 sub

I am unhappy with the "brightness" of the system (yes I was warned) I bought everything you see above at the same time, So equal break-in was allways a concern. The system is about a 1 year old.
I have a 2 year old so any chance of turning up the volume past a 1/4 is shortlived.

Long story short I am in the process of purchasing a Acurus A150 ( 2X150). Yes, it is an older amp but it looks to be in very good condition. If I use this amp to run the A5's and leave the yammy to run the rest as is. Would I be able to hear and improvement in sound. Sorry for the long post.
Any thoughts on the amp?
thanks for any cristicism

You will notice an improvement as you are sending better/cleaner power to your speakers. Now will it tame the brightness? not sure as I don't know if it's the yammie's processor which "adds" it or is it the amp portion. You are def. on the right track by adding the amp in either case.
