I have a need for a low cost receiver to power 6 ceiling speakers for casual listening, four are in master bedroom, two in a second bedroom. I have no need to do any video switching with this receiver. I am looking at 7.1 to drive all 6 speakers. My budget is around $200 delivered but I want the best value for my money. I am planning to buy refurb from HarmonAudio, ecost, or accessories4less. I have read thru many of the posts in the forum and have narrowed it down to the following.
I am considering (all refurb/recert):
Denon AVR1508, AVR1907
Onkyo TX-SR505, TX-SR506, TX-SR575
Marantz SR3001
Pioneer - cannot seem to find refurbs online
HK 247 (exceeds budget)
Would appreciate any advice that will help me come to a quick decision amongst these.
Thanks.
