I had the Marantz 8805 in my last theater room with a Lexicon RX7 amplifier. For my new theater room I went with Integra DRX -R1. The marantz was fine. The Integra is an all in one unit with plenty of power. You may want to read the reviews on the Integra.
New high end processor
Hi all, I am in the market for a processor to power My PMC speakers. I currently have a 5.1 system but in the near future it will be expanded to a 7.1 or 7.2 possibly with atmos. I have parasound halo amps. I have been in a holding pattern with a Denon 3400 with which I am not enamored and have yet ot hook up my amps. So, my budget is 5k. I have seen the Marantz 8500, Avm 60 and the Yamaha Cx 5200 on line. I am sure that there are others, and updates for this year? Suggestions?
Thank you
