Why a Receiver? A much better route would be to separate the Processor from the heat source, The Amp. If you do decide on a receiver, get one with pre-outs to upgrade later. Maybe consider Marantz.
Processor ?
So I have made the decision on my mains...I am purchasing some JM Labs Cobalt 816s, with the CC800 center. I don't have the surrounds picked out yet, but probably go with the JM monitors. The JMs sounded real good to me, and I can run them from a reciever just fine as they are pretty efficient. I am also going with a Velodyne SPL1000 sub, so I don't need power from the reciever to run it.
My question is this:
Right now on Audiogon, there is a Denon AVR5800 for $1550, and a B&K AVR307 for $2000. What is the better deal, or more importantly, what will be a better match for my speakers? Are there other brands I should be looking at ina reciever (maybe NAD or Rotel?)
Thanks,
Z
