Hey guys whats up, im looking for a receiver for 5.1 surround sound. I can spend about $530 on the receiver. Whats the best or what would you suggest in this price range ??If you want to pay list price and buy from a local retailer, I would recommend either the Yamaha RX-V650 (http://www.yamaha.com/yec/products/receivers/RXV650.htm) or the equivalent Yamaha HTR-5760 (http://www.yamaha.com/yec/products/HTIB/HTR5760.htm). The HTR-5760 can also be purchased at a modest discount from a Yamaha Authorized Internet Retailer (http://www.yamaha.com/yec/customer/dealer.aspx). Another good choice with a $499 list price is the Denon AVR-1905 (http://www.usa.denon.com/catalog/pdfs/AVR1905.pdf) which may be available at a discount from an authorized Denon Online E-Tailer (http://www.usa.denon.com/dealers/dealers.asp?l=1).

If you are willing to consider a manufacturer reconditioned unit with the manufacturer's warranty, I would suggest the Onkyo TX-SR702 (http://www.us.onkyo.com/model.cfm?m=TX-SR702&class=Receiver&p=i) which lists for $799 but is currently available for $409 from two Onkyo authorized internet dealers (http://www.onkyousa.com/locations_intdealer.cfm). PCMall has it for $409 with free shipping (http://www.pcmall.com/pcmall/shop/detail.asp?dpno=184791) and eCost has it for $409 plus shipping (http://www.ecost.com/ecost/shop/detail.asp?dpno=184791).
