Is there an amp that does 2-channel and all this?


Hola,

I'm looking for an integrated amplifier/receiver/AVR that does 2-channel well. I don't need 5+ channels but I would not mind it. I have gotten the impression that 2-channel receivers are preferred over 5 channel for 2-channel music. However, if there is a 5 channel receiver with stellar sound quality, I'm all ears!

I'm looking for a piece that has the kitchen sink:

phono stage
tuner
dac (usb and spdif)
bass management / variable sub out crossover
remote
tone control
125w+ per channel
pre-out

IF available, I'd also like room correction

Budget is $4000

Thoughts?

I have the Harmon Kardon AVR 7200.

Harmon Kardon has a great sound, but I hear the Arcam AVR600 is FAR AND AWAY better in ANY configuration.

Anybody know? The reviews are off the charts! Only problem seemed to be the early units were not quality checked.

Worth a discussion.
