Hey guys,

As i stated in another thread ive been looking at three recievers, the.....

- Onkyo TX-DS575X (around $589 Can)
- Yamaha RXV1500 (Around $608 Can)
- Harman Kardon AVR335 (around $525 Can)

Now today i went to my local high end audio shop, and he told me he had a flag ship Yamaha DSP-AX1 integrated HT amp. It weighs in about 62 pounds, and is an absoltete beast. Now im not sure how old the amp is, but it did retail for about 6000-7000 dollars at one time.
Now the model he has, is not the NA version, but a European version. Could someone explain the difference to me?

Anyways, he said i could have it for $1000 Can, taxes in. Is that a good deal?

I mean this is a flag ship integrated amp, and i am sure it's a big step up on the recievers listed above depite it's age. Also, is their anything i should be aware of with this amp?


Here is a link for the amp..
