I am looking for a used 7 channel receiver from a higher level series. It will be used 80% for music so sound quality is a top priority. I will be using a sub in my system, so high power is not a necessity. As far as inputs goes, HDMI (with hdmi pass through) is a must, phono would be good but not a must. I also like nice things like metal face place, good binding post, independent power cord, etc. I don’t have much experience with room correction software as my current Sony receiver is missing a mic. But it would hurt to get a unit with decent room correction software.
I will be mostly looking to buy from ebay, so feel free to suggest a series if you think that will be more helpful as opposed to a specific model. Also do tell about the sound signature of the different brands.
I love the 'clean' sound of my current Sony ES receiver, but it is somewhat unreliable--(I think) it has connector contact issues.
Oh! My budget is $150. Thanks!
