I was hoping that could get some help choosing an A/V receiver that has the most bang for the buck.


The components I have now are as followed:

Sony KE-42TS2U plasma

B&W 602's Book shelves

B&W cc 652 centre channels

Rotel RCC-945 CD player

DVD player to be purchased


My plan is to eventually buy 603's for my fronts and put the 602's in the rear. Also get the DS6 wall speakers.


I also need to hook up 3 satellite receivers; my I pod and may old VCR.


The room I'm doing is in the basement and is roughly 15' x 20' with 7' ceiling.


So far this is what I priced out:


NAD T773 $1699.

Denon AVR-3806 - $1499

Denon AVR-4306 - $2499

Yamaha RXV 2700B - $1899

Integra DTR-6.6 - $1500


So far I fell the NAD is the best deal but I also realize that it lacks in video features.


My budget is $2000 CAN.


Any advice or tips will be greatly appreciated.



Thanks in advace,


Mark

might want to add rotel to that list.I have the 603s3's with a rotel rsx1056 and think it's a great combo.

You can add the Rotel RSX 1057 to the mix. I can get it on sale for $1500 CDN.

What do you guy's think?

the new integra DTR 7.7 has HDMI switching if you need it. sounds great and retails for like $1200 (us)

Yesterday I went and took a look at the Marantz 8001 receiver. Looks good, has a Toroidal power transformer but the video switching is better than the Nad T773. The place where a looked at the Marantz would not agree to me bring my 602's in to listem to them and they do not have a return policy. The price they quoted me was $1800.

I think I narrowed my picks to the Nad or Marantz but I was hoping someone out there could help me seal the deal.


Thanks
