I will be purchasing a Reference home theater package at the end of the summer (RF3, RC3, RS3, KSW12) and am currently researching a nice home theater receiver to match the speakers. I am looking in the $1000 range and here are the top three I am looking at now:
Arcam AVR100
NAD T761
Denon AVR 3801 (I am a little hesitant because this is more of a mass-market product than the other two, but it does pack a lot of nice features)
I would love some feedback and comments on which you think I should get
