I'd take the Arcam hands down over the others; it is in another class. It really is a quality unit and very, very good at stereo reproduction. Buy the Arcam and don't look back.
Which Reciver?
I'm new to the HT scene and am in the process of setting up a small system. Room size is 17' x 19.5', I purchased the mythos 1 speakers with def tech inwalls as the rear surrounds. I was thinking about the Rotel 1067 until reading some of the posts. Now thinking about the Outlaw 950, Arcam AVR300 and NAD T63. Any advice or other receivers to consider?
