Need some advice on a good a/v receiver

Hello, I have a pair of LS350 McIntosh, front speakers, pair of rear LS310 McIntosh speakers and a McIntosh center channel speaker too. What is a high end, warm sounding (not bright) a/v receiver I can consider to drive these speakers within a budget of around $1,000. Any ideas would be most appreciated. Thanks.

Marantz SR-7200 is a good option for well under $1,000 new. I've used an SR-7000 for the last 18 months and have been very pleased. Outlaw is a good choice for around $500.

Yamaha has one of the better digital sound processors and the DSP-A1 integrated is a great choice - can be gotten used for under 1K but use to list at over 2k - it can handle the Mcintosh apeakers just fine. I own one and push Eggleston Andras in an HT system with it. This unit does not have a tuner but there is a version with one.
