Blending of old and new

I recently relocated much of my equipment to the finished basement.
I only use it for 2 channel music, and DVD concert videos , and DVD audio.
I have another smaller sytem upstairs for movies. My downstairs system has an older OPPO , that I use the 6 channel analog audio out. r & L front ( stereo ) go to a Macintosh C-28 and MC 162. The centers and rears go to a 9 year old Denon Receiver, into the anaolg outputs ( 6 channel analog , I don't use the R & L ). the sub out I send to an old Yamaha receiver. I keep the yamaha volume at halfway.

When I turn up the volume on the C-28, I adjust the Denon with a remote from the listening position, by ear.

So now that I have this all up and running, I test it out on my favorite artist , Keith Emerson. Keith Emerson Band Live in Moscow DVD.

I just can't believe the sound. Full rich, and very " concert like". I saw a similar show in New Haven CT from the front row around the time this was recorded. The deep bass on the Moog comes through on the sub channel, so deep, so clear, it is unbelievable. Not quite as good as live on the Bag End sub, but still quite good.

Vocals, other instruments crystal clear and very detailed.

I welcome your comments and advice. Thanks.
