I'm with you Michael, I open up this thread to see that it was started back in 06 or something.

I have the recently released Marantz SR-6006. I enjoy it's direct "Pure" sound feature which bi-passes all the non-essential circuits and outputs a very tube like sound. The set up wizard takes only minutes and hard wiring it to the internet makes for trouble free high rez audio streaming.

:) oh man i've owned a few "But there's something about the Pioneer Elite Vsx- 94 that I love over all the others I've owned.

recoveryone, I have a question for you?? have up dated your Pioneer BDP-320 recently with the latest firmware? ...if you did, please give a heads up!!

I've downloaded the zip file name "BDP30A_V372.zip" from Pioneer's site, but when ever time I attempt to double click the file name, in order to burn it to a CD (it sends my Windows Vista into a (loop) which left me no choice but to restart or shut the Computer down) the BDP-320 is a well built unit, that has great sounds.

if anyone else have any idea what I'm dealing with here, please feel free to chip in.

You have to extract the info using 7Zip. Download the free file from the site and run the setup wizard. Next, click on the icon and look to the upper left corner and hit "Extract". Choose the appropriate file and, viola...

Lolz, you're welcome Winston...glad to be of service. Next time I'm in Miami you can buy a round at your favorite watering hole and we'll have a good ol' time :p

Just got this receiver for less than $400.00 DTSHD DDTRUEHD AUDYSSEY AUTO SETUP. I really like this receiver easy to use sounds great ready for blue ray hdmi hookup, got rid of a mess of wiring .It does have 7.1 but i only use 5.1 for blue ray.

Hands down for me would be any of the new Yamaha Advantage line.

Just bought a RX-A810 and it is awlsum.

Just my opinion.

Not just your opinion...I've read nothing but positives about the Aventage line and the ones I've heard have meritted the praise. I can't wait to get my hands on one for a in depth test drive.

Dude, do I get to play with the big, pink egg?! I'm all over it!!

Actually, we do need to get another AR Conference set up but now is a bad time for me. I think I live in the only real estate market in the U.S. that isn't depressed. I've got a few irons in the fire. Soon though :biggrin5:

I live in Indianapolis. While I wouldn't describe this as Shangri-La we've weathered the economic downturn much better than much of the country.

Denon makes good receivers. In most cases you can't go wrong with one.

i have been looking into the denon 23 or 38 series. my biggest problem is that my speakers have different ohms, mains are 4 but other speakers are 6-8. i didnt know much about this until somebody told me about how it effects the sounds. why are speakers made at different ohms? i think it just to make things harder on me.
