Need multi-channel that's great on 2 channel


Gang,
I'm looking for a multi-channel receiver that's GREAT for two-channel listening. I'm thinking of upgrading what I have, given the space I have to play with. Most of the time I listen to music, not watch movies.

Arcam's AVR600 keeps getting mentioned; are there others that are very good musically?

Any input would be most welcome,
Jeff

I would go the Arcam AVR 600.There will be new models coming out soon and I have seen the AVR 600 go for as little as $2500 second hand.I too only listen to music only in a 5.3 system.I run the 3x Subs with surround (DVD-A SACD),turntable and CD stereo.I have looked long and hard to find a 2 channel AMP for Turntable and stereo CD playback that will integrate the Subs with the front speakers set to small but NO LUCK.Now that my turntable is going HIEnd I have been searching for a AVR for music that is better then the Arcam AVR 600.I am more then happy with the results of the Arcam AVR 600 but looking at my next upgrade.
