Is there a stereo receiver good sound compact size


It's for my second system in library.

The goal is good sound + simplicity, thus the receiver should be 'compat' in size about 9" deep

Currently I'm using JVC alll-in-one mini system, and want little bit more... upgrade.

Thanks for all the input.

I'm planning to use Sqeezwbox as a source...

Well it's hard to find a one box solution.

Right now, I'm considering Adcom GTP-450 tuner/preamp + one of those compact amps(parasound, nuforce, Cyrus)

or

Creek 4330R integrated + tuner

or

NAD 1600 tuner/preamp + compact amp
I use a yamaha/piano craft series. It has a built in cd player and tuner. It blossomed when I added a pair of yamaha subs. I would recommend this for any small room. Perfect for the collge student. It will rock a large room. It's in my bedroom. I also use it when I'm upgrading my main system. This is where Best Buy, Circuit City, JR World, etc. come in handy.

Dont laugh. I have one like the second one hooked to a set of Mirage M-190's in my office.
The combo is very smooth and detailed for "work tunes" and much better than any of the "allin one" things I have heard.
