Receiver for B&W 702 S2


All

planning to buy 702 S2 for my living room. Given it’s in own living room, I am leaning towards a receiver over separates. 

Consumption is 50% movies and 50% music. I use on 3 channels + a funk audio sub. Music is mostly jazz, classic rock and a lot of guitar. 

I would ideally like to spend under $2000 on electronics. As of right now I was thinking about Yamaha a1070 receiver but have also looked at Anthem, Marantz, Denon etc. 

B&W and classe is a popular combination, but I didn’t want to spend that much money. 

It would be great to get some help.

You can hear a lot of the options in a Magnolia design center with the same speakers. I’d suggest just going there and listening to them. None of the options you list will sound bad. I’ve got a Marantz I use for music on my home theater and it sounds quite nice, as. Well as a Denon without separates that also sounds good.
