I just picked up a Sony Bravia KDL52XBR5, now I need to upgrade my Reciver.
I can get the Pioneer VSX-1017TXV-K for under $400 and it looks to get good reviews and I would have to get that online.
My problem here is I my choices to go to the store and purchase is basicly Bestbuys or Circuit City, no real Audio shops here, and what we do have the price's are way high compared to what I see online.
Im looking to spend up to about the $600 range
I hooking it up to
Axiom's
M60's v2 Mains
QS8's v2 Surounds
VP 150 v2 Center
EP 500 v2 Base
Pioneer DVD but will up grade to Blue ray in the future
Thanks

Onkyo offers some serious bang in that price range. You can check out the 606 or maybe get a good deal on the 705 or 805. Circuit City carries Onkyo. You can also check Onkyo's website for authorized internet dealers.

Don't know much about the Pioneer but I did spend some time with the Onkyo 805. It's a good unit.
