I have a Marantz SR 7000 5 channel receiver in a second system and I now use it mostly in two channel to drive Triangle Comete monitors. It had excellent reviews when new and has a solid 100 watts/channel and sounds very good. I believe the SR 8000 would be at least as musical and powerful.
Streaming Sonos - Best H/T Receiver
I had an old Pioneer Elite VSX-33TX receiver I was using to stream Sonos to a game room. I was using it for 2.1 with Boston Acoustic CR85 speakers and a Boston Acoustic PV600. The Pioneer gave up the ghost and I am looking to replace with another receiver. I would like to be able to use the subwoofer and don't have the budget to go separates, so I was looking to try and find an good, older home theater receiver for under $200.00. I found a Marantz SR5000 and the SR8000, but wanted to see if anyone had any suggestions on an older receiver that had a good stereo/music sound. Thanks in advance.
