My last three amps before the now modified Sim i-5 were a Legacy (Coda) 5x 250 hi current amp, an Electrocompaniet awb 120 and a B&K 5 X 200 AMP.The Pany 45 is a fantastic sounding for all things digital whether redbook or HT sonics, but it is a huge let down for its analog ins.
It has enough resolution for HT,that I sold my 8k Legacy amp and Parasound halo c2 pre/pro.
This combo did multi channel sa-cd very well, but I found that I prefer sa-cd in 2 channel.
Combine that whith the 45's precise sounding detail, and it was easy to sell and switch to the Pany for HT.
The Kenwood receiver uses the same T/I solution, but sounds fuller in the mids for music and slightly rolled off.
I would say the 7100 is a cross between the somewhat tubey sounding JVC RX-10,and the Pany 45.
The Pany has the transparency, The JVC has the tubey mids, and the Kenwood is right in the middle.
The Kenwood sounds better than either right out of the box, and the other two need lots of run time to sound there best.
The Kenwood has no multi ins, but does 2 channel analog sources very well for a cheapo digital receiver.
The JVC has multi ins, but I can only comment that it also does 2 channel very well.Having reasonably sensitive speakers help as mine are 6 ohm 88 db and fairly easy to drive.
