help decide what av receiver under $1k to choose


Hi,

I'm a beginner home theater geek. After googling I understood that AV receiver is one of the main things in general setup. My budget is about $10k on all elements of a build. Any ideas?

Less is more!!!  You’d be better off with a great 5.1 system getting a better performing receiver.  Get a good receiver that also does good stereo.  Anthem MRX520 with Paradigm Premier or possibly Prestige Speakers and one of their new Defiance Subs - you’ll do much better than a $1k 7.1 receiver with more speakers of less quality.  A good dealer can show you why that’s the case.
