I'm still using my Onkyo 805. Bulletproof. Handles every codec except the newest like Atmos. When I upgrade if ever I'm sticking with Onkyo. Make sure you can drive at least 100 W/ch all channels driven. Check out audioholics for recent reviews. I use outboard amps to take the load off the AVR. Then you can use it for processing when money allows. Look into Emotiva as well.
