DENON, ONYKO, MARANTZ


Ok I have $700.00 to spend on AV receiver.  What say you is the best route?  I want to rock out but also want to watch movies.  I only have 2 tower speakers and a center speaker.  Must have HDMI.. Please give advice on used in my price range on any other brand names.

700 bucks I would go Sherwood (excellent amplifiers). A Dayton Audio powered sub, and DA 652 for rear channels. 4 RoomTune CornerTunes.


and you'll have change left over

I apologize in advance if I insult anyone here, I am new to the Audio world and I don't have a massive budget.  I have the Fluance tower speakers and the Fluance mid,  they are pretty nice and work well for my budget so don't judge!  One day I will up grade I promise so be nice.

I love the blues and good old fashioned rock and roll and anything Acoustic.

i agree that anthem is better than the mass market brands, but it may be more avr than you need for your speakers--i'd go to accessories4less and pick out a yamaha or marantz--they have great prices (40/50% off) and you can get a lot of machine for $300-400. onkyo seems to be disfavored these days because of reliability.
That Anthem for $600.00 is a great way to go.  I almost pulled the trigger on one that was for sale around that price on TMR.  I was not quick enough.  Being Atmos is not part of the plan right now, musically the Anthem would be hard to top for that small amount of $$$.  Maybe an NAD but not many.

As far as A4Less, good suggestion.
