College budget reveiver help


Hey guys/gals!
Im a college student who is in the market for a receiver for around $750 (audiogon prices or otherwise). I only really need 5.1 but I know that most now days are 6.1 or 7.1 so that really does not matter. The receiver will power three (3) JM Lab Sibs (I will get the rear pair when money allows!) So far I have looked at Yamaha, Harmon Kardon, Marantz, and the lower line of Integras. Im open to any other brands so any advice will help! Thanks for your time and info!
PS: Any advise on a good 8' or 10' sub? ($250-$300)?

One other line I forgot to mention is NAD. They are sweet as well - really nice smooth sound.
You can't go wrong with HK. I've tried them all and I keep one on hand because I always end up going back to it. If you don't like HK, I'd suggest Rotel at your price point; you can't go wrong with them either.

For your sub, I'd suggest HSU.
