I think the Denon's have superior sound to the other mass market receivers. I would go with the 3300. If you can live with simple surround sound verses dts, you can pick up a used denon 5600 for a good price. That will give you more power and features. I have HEARD those can be cheaply modified to handle dts.
Need help choosing a receiver...
for my current system. I have a Denon AVR 800 receiver (6 years old) and want to upgrade to a new digital receiver. I am about to switch from cable to the Dish Network and will be purchasing a DVD player soon and want to get the most out of these "digital" systems. My current home theater system includes: 2 Klipsch KG 4.5 Floor standing front speakers Klipsch KV-1 Center channel 2 Klipsch IW-150 rear (surround) speakers What receiver would you recommend to best "match" my speakers. I looking for something that retails for under $1000 -- I've been looking at the Denon AVR 2800 & 3300, the Marantz SR 5000 and SR 7000, and the Yamaha Rx-V 595A, and 795A. Any advice I could get would be much appreciated.
