    Is this a very Good PRICE RANGE on RECEIVERS or am I in the LOW END of RECEIVERS? I would like to be in the Upper of the Middle Range of RECEIVERS? I know I do not need to be in the TOP RANGE of RECEIVERS unless they have something that the HIGH END of the MIDDLE Range of RECEIVERS don't have.

    Let me know on this?

    The price range that I gave you was for the receiver. I hope that you understand what I just said?

    IMHO, The main difference when you go up the line with Receivers is more features and modest power increases (not better sound).. So it just depends on what features you want....

    So Marantz, Yamaha, Denon or even Sony should be good choices in your price range... But the best suggestion I can make is that you go down to a Stereo/Home Theatre store and audition some gear....

    You and the other person are turely helping me in the right direction for someone that does not know anything about the systems.

    You can guild me in which system that would be best for us. Looking at our age could tell you allot and better guild us to one that we would enjoy for a lifetime.

    We are at 60 years old.

    GO to Walmart or target, they have a wide variety of shelf units from a 100 bucks to 300 bucks.
    Most have changers, pick out the one you like in your price range that has the features you like.
    Just remember that electronics under 500$ these days are considered desposable,
    its just not economic to repair such a cheap item so they put their effort into
    making the price as low as possible, but they should last for several years.
    You will get better sound from your DVD player hooked up to a receiver but it is probably more trouble to you than its worth.
    And these shelf units have a plug (called aux) that you can plug your dvd player into, it will sound better through it.
    But stay away from BOSE, they are NOT top of the line, just top of the price range,
    and not worth the price they charge
    LG 42", integra 6.9, B&W 602s2, CC6 center, dm305rears, b&w
    sub asw2500
    Panny DVDA player
    sharp Aquos BLU player
    pronto remote, technics antique direct drive TT
    Samsung SACD/DVDA player
    emotiva upa-2 two channel amp

    Why would you choose to emphasize/scream "GO"? Such syntactical decisions must lead to bizarre inflection in the real world.

    It ain't easy bein' you, is it Pix?
