[QUOTE="Blown 89, post: 15137927, member: 45161"] I wouldn't sweat the receiver too much, most are going to sound close enough to each other where you will never be able to tell the difference. List the needs you have and then go buy whatever receiver checks off the most boxes. You will find that audiophiles have drank the kool-aid to the point that it's no longer funny. Instead, spend your time properly setting up the system and tuning it. May I also suggest cracking open your pioneer and inspecting the main board and connections. Chances are you're looking at less than a $5 fix if you have basic soldering skills. The money you save could either buy a sub or get you into a level of headphones than would destroy anyone's setups on here. Oh, and FYI on the Yamahas. If you can wait until May that's the time to buy. They're well known for giving them away to move stock for the next model. Yamaha's dialogue reproduction is pretty poor out of the box IMO...a lot of people on avs will agree with that but like I said, the audio community has their heads so far up their butts so take that with a grain of salt.
