Huijames You have my sympathy. You ask a simple question and get 9 different answers. Now what does that tell you? It tells me this. You need to make a short list of some of the above. If there is a dealer close by go and listen. After listening YOU make a decision based on your criteria. You really aren't going to get "outstanding" 2 channel sound from a 800.00 receiver but it may be good enough for you. You can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear. That said I always found NAD gear in your price range very good indeed and would definitely include it in your short list. Good luck in your journey.
NAD 760 sounds excellent in stereo..a couple of notches above some more expensive Marantz gear I demoed it against. Better seperation. Lame remote but take the money you saved on your Receiver and buy yourself a Pronto from Phillips and you will be grinning large
NAD is a good choice, but I prefer the sound of Marantz. I think it is a better all-around performer - very musical and very good with 5.1
