Certainly looks like a good reciever, only 5.1 though
Head over to AVS or Home Theater Shack and search it there... So much information there

Better replacing a fuse then your speakers...
But I understand what you mean, you want the most out of them.

Have your searched the existing posts over there? Im sure they will be some threads on it already


Sorry i didnt dig up a link for you


Also dont get too worried about power ratings most are very overrated and you will never need that much power to all 5 channels at the same time anyway

Marants makes some great quality audio products, and are a solid choice in the Hi-Fi world.
that's why i chose them even though its not the latest model it is a really good reciver for the price
Exactly what I was thinking, I saw the first page and saw the pioneer and I was going to say refurbed marantz would be a nice choice. Why not the 5001 for $20 more?
thank you i did not see that haha $500 of thats amazing

Just wanted to chime in on Accessories4Less - they are awesome. I ordered my CD5001 from them, and while it is "refurbished", I honestly would not have not it was previously used if it had not been marked as such.

All in all, a great business to deal with.

Marantz, Pioneer, Kenwood, Sansui are brands to look into
