Rotel, NAD, and Marantz would be my choices for entry level and midlevel.

Granted NAD seems to have more bad batches of equipment than most. But not so much in the past couple of years. They seem to be more on the ball. Hopefully the new line of AV receivers are as good as they look. But all in all they have a sound that is hard to beat at it's price point.

If I could afford to step into the higher end equipment I would probably end up with something from Pass Labs, Accuphase, Musical Fidelity, Conrad Johnson, or Krell.

For speakers I would definitely be looking at PSB, Dynaudio,Vandersteen, B&W or Totem.

Without a doubt PSB would be my choice at less than 600.

I agree... I've owned all 3... my favourite was Rotel, followed by Marantz and NAD was last mostly because they had a few bugs....

Have you tried listening to Revel or Monitor Audio?.... those are my two favourite speaker brands....
