B&K AVR307 used or other new AVR?


Interested in opinions about the B&K 307 vs. new, other brand HT receivers in the $800 price range. Lots of power and all the features that I can imagine wanting. But I realize that this being my first HT, I may one day miss some of the new bells and whistles on today's current crop. Sound in two channels is a strong consideration. The used price of the B&K seems like extraordinary value. Will power Totem Dreamcatcher 5.1 system. Thanks to all.

Just picked one up used

Blew a main channel already after a week, just my luck by all means no gripe it happens

As far as sound, its very flat. It's sounds good for movies but not as warm as i like for music. Thinking about using my Marantz as a Preamp to warm it up. Sounds good overall. For the money and power in the used market it's a very good value and good unit. One gripe, weak in the eq department. Wish it had more adjustments there. But very string with cross overs and volume settings to blend speakers together.
