AVR receivers


Looking to create a home theater system with Paradigm Studio 40 and 20 speakers. Not sure which AVR receiver to buy and would like to spend about $1000 that produces excellent CD music and Home Theater sound. So many AVR to compare including Denon 2807, Onkyo SR674, Yamaha RX-V1700, … Looking for the best sound quality.

There is a used Marantz SR-19 THX receiver for sell asking $650. It is an excellent receiver and built better than the newer ones in my opinion. Excellent sonics. I think it retailed for about $2000. Hard to beat. It has a pathway for pure 2 channel eliminating all processing for purist sound.
Too me, used is the way to go on receivers. You can get SOOOO much more for your money!
The Yamaha RXV-2700 is available on this site from dealers NEW in your price range.
