I am new to this forum, so please be kind... 
I am building an AV system, and will 1st buy the speakers.
Anthony Gallo Ref 3.1's for the front & Gallo Ref AV's for the center and rear speakers in a 5.1 configuration.
My room is 14ft X 20ft with 20 ft Vaulted ceilings. The room coninues another 20 ft longer into the Kitchen, with 8 ft ceilings.
I am seriuously considering the Emotiva DMC-1 & MPS-1 (AKA "Big Dogs") to amplify the Gallo Speakers discussed herein, due to the incredible price point of $3,000 for both the pre/pro (DMC-1) & 7 channel Amp (MPS-1).
Many people in these forums have discussed the merrits of Outlaw, Arcam, as well as others as an Amplifier solution. My HiFi speaker sales guy thinks I will be happier with the sound from the B&K AVR 507.
I have heard NAD, Rotel, & Anthem, and they all sound good... with the exception that I haven't heard them with the Gallo Speakers. I have also read very good reviews aboout the NAD M-Class (M15 & M25)
The NAD M-Class is about twice the price of the Emotivas, and the Anthem D1 or D2, with 7 ch Amp is about 3 times the price.
does anyone have experience with the Emotiva "Big Dogs" with the Gallo Speakers?
Any feedback is appreicated!
Better luck next year Redskins!
