This is my first time here...so howdy!

To the point...I need some guidance on what a/v receiver or pre/pro I should look into in order to get the most out of my speakers. I currently have:

Def Tech:

Fronts: 2x Mythos ST's
Center: CLR3000
Surr: 2x BPVX/P
Sub: Supercube 1

Room: 16'x14' (speakers facing the 14' side)

I am a bestbuy employee, so I have access to Denon a/v receivers with a great discount. The main receiver I am interested in now is the Denon AVR-5308CI. but this is not set in stone...hence why I am here asking your advice

$5000 is my ceiling...with $3000 being preferable. Pre/pro or a/v receiver, whichever sounds best. I like the bells and whistles of the 5308CI...but ultimately I want the best sound I can pull from these speakers in both HT setup and stereo.

Thanks for your help.
