Take a look at Denon, Marantz and Rotel. Two guys on this forum have been kicking up dust about the Panasonic xr-55 (pure digital) and some of the Yamaha lines too.

zoheb,
what follows is my generic Panny blurb:
======
Read up on what all the buzz is about, if anything deserves the term "giant-killer" this is it! A couple of threads about this receiver on different forums:

A few caveats---very minor IMHO at this pricepoint: no pre-outs (would negate the whole point of a digital amp after all), subwoofer crossover only down to 80Hz, no room speaker EQ, primitive remote, no digital outputs, no OSD (onscreen display). Also may not be the best choice if you have lousy, overly bright speakers.
Just as some folks still prefer LPs to CDs and tubes to solid state, you might decide to stick with an analog receiver, I'll make no guarantees. But it's definitely worth hearing it to make up your own mind, in any case...it’s a whole different animal!
======
Let your own ears decide, but there is no better "bang for the buck" IMHO. |
