im kinda at same point as the op,,, i have been using a 10+ year old dennon avr. I tried a new marantz 7012, (i have my own amps that are better than any receiver) its going back its not much better than the old dennon. . I did alos get a mini dsp unit and that is very good for the bass. Good enough now im thinking about getting an NAD they use same correction dirac. its more for tweakers than set it and forget it guys, but i think i will enjoy it. Or might go anthem.
Looking for Recommendation for AVR
My 20 year old Harmon Kardon AVR 65 suddenly has a bad buzz and doesn't seem to be working -
It is time for a new AVR I think.
Are there any recommendations for an AVR ?
I have an Aerial center channel, 2 Mirage back speakers, and Aerial 10T front speakers that I will be running through an Audio Research LS 25 pre-amp and Pass Labs 250.8 amp.
This means my AVR has to have pre-outs for the front speakers.
Any recommendations for an AVR - I'm using the AVR just for when I watch my TV - a new LG 55 inch OLED (beautiful pic btw) ?
I don't want to break the bank on this - I was seeing that Marantz, Yahama, and Denon had AVR's under $1000 with pre-outs.
