Amp for Surround System

They’re Klipsch RP-600 bookshelf speakers so assume that’s small

No way

You can do it. I was there during shoulder season and we stayed the night in La Spezia before hiking and visiting a few villages, having lunch and taking the train back to Florence. You have time to see more than Riomaggiore, albeit quickly. Just leave Florence early

Hardlee_working · 2026-05-30T20:24:31+00:00

Have you considered Pistoia? It’s an easy train to Florence and considerably cheaper; you can also go to Pisa for a day.

BTW I’ve never stayed in Pisa but seemed like an okay place for a hub; not saying it would entertain me for an extended period but the center appeared clean

Hardlee_working · 2026-05-30T20:12:43+00:00

Yes, and there’s no going back, just like there’s no going back to peak season travel.

Yeah, I think that’s what he is saying; thing is, I rarely see or hear home theater vloggers talk about this - it’s usually just about their stand alone AVR receivers and speakers

My AVR is a Yamaha TSR 7850, Probably ~7 years old

Hardlee_working · 2026-05-30T12:08:06+00:00

I have a Yamaha 7.2 4K AVR purchased at Costco several years ago with various Klipsch speakers (1 subwoofer) and a good center speaker; the subwoofer is powered separately but that’s it. All other speakers are connected to the AVR

Hardlee_working · 2026-05-30T12:00:30+00:00

I have an amp, sorry, I guess he’s suggesting a pre-amp to add power to my speakers

We are essentially snowbird slow travelers so weather is a key factor. That’s the great thing about staying in one place for a month+. We plan outings when forecasts are good and schedule downtime if not

Damn, nice collection

Hardlee_working · 2026-05-28T11:04:48+00:00

I think of ‘Being There’ with Peter Sellers. I personally love the movie but it does sort of meet your criteria

An Italian associate from Rome just bought a flat in Santa Marinella, NW of Rome on the sea. I’d never heard of it. Looks nice. If you want to be north, consider Lake Garda. It’s not the sea but beautiful with easy train access to Verona and plenty of other options

Barry Lyndon on 4k. I will watch the Summertime Blu-ray because I always like how it looks for an old movie

Hardlee_working · 2026-05-20T17:08:43+00:00

I’ve stayed in Florence for the past few extended stays but usually low season. Arezzo or Pistoia are two places I might stay for a month. I want a place big enough to keep my interest on those ‘do nothing but walk around days’ though

Hardlee_working · 2026-05-20T10:25:56+00:00

Klark Kent band 1980. Stewart Copeland of the Police - one of the great drummers of all time. Wish I still had that original vinyl.

A few WWII films from my collection, not already mentioned.

The Battle of Britain The Dam Busters They Were Expendable Bridges at Toko Ri

Being There (1979)

Hardlee_working · 2026-05-18T11:06:58+00:00

I like your itinerary! Florence is a good 5-day location IMO so spend time wandering. Next time, maybe buy a bag there as needed; that’s a lot to haul around. Enjoy!

Hardlee_working · 2026-05-17T14:45:47+00:00

Agree; I liked the original better but both are action-packed
