Receiver is basically a preamp and amp in one. This is just the amp. People buy it so they can dedicate the receiver to just process the signal and let these beefy amps do the heavy lifting. In 95% of cases, the receiver alone will be just fine.
Thiss is mainly for enthusiasts who wants to give a little more power to their speakers.

These are great amps, but please be aware of Monoprice's B stock policy. It's a like-for-like exchange on these amps. Should you need warranty service on your amp, you can return it, and they will send you another B stock unit, if they have any in stock. If they are out of stock, you can return it for a refund or wait for a B stock unit to come back into stock. This isn't very well explained on their website, but was clarified when some of the AVS members asked for clarification back when these were available last November.

Not necessarily unless...

1. If you have very efficient speakers and you hear hissing noise (the noise floor on the 555 is higher) because of it, switching to Monoliths will make it quiet.

2. If your Adcom is getting too old and has never been refurbished, and so its capacitors are starting to leak or stray from their ratings, the sound may not be as good as when you bought them. Switching to any new amp let alone Monoliths will fix that.

The Monolith will have a slightly brighter sound than the Adcom whose JFETs roll off higher frequencies a bit compared to the Monoliths which have a clean, flat response in audible range. This may sound better or worse depending on one's taste, tolerance for higher frequencies, etc. Adcoms sound warmer because of that.

20% off the 11 channel. Nice deal if you're shopping for one, but not into impulse buy territory for me.

5 channel $1099.....200 watts per channel

3 channel $1049....200 watts per channel

2 more channels for $50 more? This makes the 3 channels price too high

Waiting for the Craigslist related replies of buying 5 basic stereo units that can be had and set up together for multi channel.

Higher channel power amps have problems to contend with that power amps with fewer channels don't have to contend with. So fewer channels is more desirable If Quality is important for you.

These are way beefier. More power/channel. Passive cooling instead of fans. Balanced inputs. The better comparison would be to Emotivas XPA line

Quote from orangelines :
Would have thought an amp of this price with a "home theater" label would have hdmi inputs and source management.
Are you trolling or confused? These are power amplifiers, not receivers, preamps, or processors. They have nothing to do with video or source switching.
