You my be correct, havent kept up with budget components for a couple of years. I thought the main advantage of digital amplification was the temperature. Since I received my set up all equipment I looked at are not sold in big chain stores. I restrict my store selection to dedicated home theater shops
looking at NAD, Marantz, Rotel, Arcam, and McIntosh..

Some of you guys are comparing this panny to 4 digit price receivers? what receivers are you comparing them too? Thats a VERY bold statement.
I seriously doubt a $300 panny will hold up to a $1300 Rotel. Thats just too good to be true, what speakers are you comaring them too? because kilo buck receivers and amps can drive Martin Logans and I seriously doubt the panny can.
I know that the brands Im stating are far out of his budget, but you shouldnt be compairng a $300 surround receiver to a $1000 receiver or pre amp amp combo.
once again what kind of speakers are you listening to? I want to check out this panny.

The JVC is source sensitive while the Pannies are meant to be fed a digital input. |

I have 6 ohm speakers and these new Panasonic units (with an upgraded power cord & a high quality transport) can compete with real stereo gear (kilobuck gear that would leave anything else mentioned in this thread in the dust). |
