Hi all,
I'm looking to replace an old AIWA receiver (reason: too tall, stereo only and is breaking down). I would like some recommendations from fellow members as to what to get at my price range.
My criteria is simple: around $500 (can stretch a little if worth it), at least 5.1 (prefer 7.1 for future-proofing) and sounds good (musical?) for the price. This will be used mainly for TV viewing and occasional games/movies with an audience that is not into 'audiophile listening', i.e. general use. I would use my existing Rotel integrated but but I would like to utilize all front, rear and center speakers the AIWA originally came with.
Please do not hesitate to bombard me with suggestion (and let me know if I am missing any vital info).
Thanks in advance!
