Well, I'm looking for a receiver. The brands I have access to are Rotel, Marantz, and Pioneer Elite.
I'm looking on spending around $1200 retail max. I need one with preouts for an amplifier (future upgrade) and of course good build quality. I figure this is probably a better idea than getting a surround processor. I guess maybe for the same price I could get a better surround processor so you can lead me that way as well for the same budget if you want. Thanks! |

I'm not finding the best deals at this very moment, but I have something to check.
I am getting a better than retail, of course.
The Pioneer VSX-82TXS and VSX-81TXV are catching my eye(alot). I have a lot to read up on though.. I feel like pushing my sub to it's limits cause the power's back on!
Oh, and thanks for feedback about those Pioneers, The VSX-84TXSi is catching my eye pretty sharply as well as it's not horribly expensive...
Still I think the best way to choose an A/V receiver is either test it extensively in the showroom (like I did with the Seismic 10) or try it out at home extensively to see if it is what you are looking for. GREAT method lol. |

That's alright I can get it for a much better deal from a local place (brand new) along with any Rotel or PE model (of course Sony ES and Marantz as well) |
