• A:Answer Hello. Thank you for your question and we hope all is well. Sound can be subjective, so it would be hard to say if you personally like it better than your Onkyo, but it does have more power than the Onkyo and should drive your speakers more efficiently. The MP500 is a power amp and you technically don't need a pre-amp, however, it would typically be paired with one because it doesn't have all the inputs a pre-amp would have and doesn't have a remote. If someone had preouts on their a/v receiver or pre-amp, they could use the MP500 with it. Your Onkyo unfortunately doesn't have preouts so you would need another preamp or a/v receiver to work with it. Note, it can still be used without one, but we just wanted to make sure you were aware of the limitations before considering it. We hope this helps and please let us know if there is anything else we can assist you with. Thanks again for your question and we appreciate your support.

Q: QuestionI have a Pioneer Elite 7.1 trying to drive martin logon electro motion 300 watt 8" drivers speakers would a martin logan 500 watt 2.0 amp be sufficient for this set up ?.

• A:Answer Hello and thank you for your question. The amp will be sufficient for the speakers, but it does have some restrictions in other areas depending on your use case. Its purpose is to be a power amp. Note, there is no remote control and the volume knob acts as a limiter. We only want to mention this depending on your use case as it may not be the solution you are looking for. It will have sufficient power for the speakers though. We hope this helps and thank you for your interest and support.
