AV Receiver recommends


I started researching receivers last year. The only place I could actually audition any of them was at the Magnolia room (Best Buy) and they tend to push you towards the Pioneer D Class Amps. Not that anything is wrong with them I actually like the Pioneer SC-91 that just came out.

I wanted to get the boards consensus though before going that route. I think the AV receiver is my next purchase.

Again, I am running a 5.1 system with B&W CM1's all around, Sony XBR-55HX950 TV, JBL-150 (pending upgrade) and my 15 year old Yamaha AV.

Are there other recommendations outside the Pioneer D Class series? I'm sorta an Apple guy so iPhone, iTunes, Apple TV integration is always a plus.

My father has had an Anthem 510 for about 6 months and it has been great.....sounds awesome, blows away his B&K ref 20/ 5000II combo that he bought in 98.... Great feature set, much easier for him to use.....ARC is easy to set up, sounds great with his Sonus Fabers
