I'm lost...Recommendation for an amp/receiver?

Hello, I am new to this forum/website. I have an adequate stereo system but I recently bought a sony blu-ray player which has an HDMI output. My receiver is old and does not have an HDMI input, so I need to buy a new receiver. I am totally lost as to what receiver/amp I should buy. I currently have B and W 602 speakers. Any recommendations for a good amp to match my speakers in the $300 to $600 range (either new or used) would be deeply appreciated. I am also open to purchasing an entirely new system (i.e., with new speakers). Thanks so much, Dorian

Used used used...but buy local so you can check out the equipment.

there is no reason to buy a receiver with an hdmi connection unless you have a tv with hdmi, just going from a blu ray to a receiver via hdmi to a tv with only rca cables will not yield any benefits.

the b&w speakers you have are really good speakers.... unless you want to go to floor standing speakers or you find a great deal on some used higher end speakers...

i like some of the older pioneer elite bigger receivers... good amp at a great price... in my second room i have my older elite 92txh... it great and had room correction.
