Phillips was able to turn Marantz around for the better after they made a bad turn. Is there any new Sansui? I haven't seen any around in years. Check out Onkyo or Harmon Kardon for receivers and some integrated amps for 2 channel. Maybe Arcam or Creek.
The Sherwood is for my 7 year old son. The Marantz is in basement .Sony is in living room for now.I am going to buy another receiver its between the Yamaha and Harmon Kardon.Most of the other receiver are going to family member.Spouse just lost her job and we have two house to pay .If I go out to pay for a receiver at this time she would kill me!
