I hadn't thought about the 565 for music and HT (as I mentioned, I use separate systems). It may depend upon the type of listening (format and music style) as well. The rotel does a 5 channel pass-through for sacd/dvd-a while the 565 doesn't so this is a disadvantage. For analog, the 565 doesn't do a passive pass-through (perhaps the new model does?) but I'm not sure the rotel does either. Finally, for music type, I listen to a great deal of jazz much of which is mono recording so something like the Meridian trifield hinders more than helps.

Sure is complicated, isn't it?
