hey guys i dont need a 7.1 av receiver 5.1 would do just fine

now i see most 5.1 are rated less power then 7.1

i dont need wifi, i dont need pandora etc

i need a good receiver with plently of rms for kef q100,kef q200c and kef e301 in rear

my tv is samsung 4k i would like to use arc and since the cablebox would be connected to receiver then to tv i would like
to i guess have 4k passthrough?

are samsung receivers any good?

No, not really.

The Samsung receivers I see are of the Home Theater In A Box variety. You're gonna want a nice receiver to pair with your KEF speakers.

Look at Yamaha, Marantz, Denon, Pioneer Elite, etc instead of Samsung.

Do you have a subwoofer in your setup?

Other brands to consider are Harman Kardon, NAD, and Cambridge Audio. NAD and Cambridge will have less features but very good sound.

What's your budget?

With a 4k tv check out the brand new Pioneer 830. Will be out very soon.
Ignore the wifi. Anything decent comes with that now. Samsung tv's don't
have the best reputation with arc. It also usually restricts audio quality.
