Good used receiver for bedroom. Denon? Marantz?

Good day. I need a basic receiver for my bedroom to drive inwall speakers. My listening is mostly music. My two requirements are good power and HDMI switching that can convert from an analog source (component-->HDMI).

As much as i'd like to run out and buy a $400 latest denon/sony/onkyo unit i'm thinking i can get a much better used model with a better power supply. I dont need the latest decoding but i suppose it'd be nice for down the road.

My budget is ~$400.

Any recommendations?

Thanks in advance.

Wait for an Onkyo or Integra to come up used and jump on it - they typically get excellent AV reviews, and the sound for 2 channel is quite good.

Everything I buy from Yamaha breaks.

At the price point you're thinking about, find something used that will fit the bill in features and just get it - I don't think there's enough of a difference to get too worked up about.
