runninshine Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 For the last year or so I kind of thought 5.1 home set ups were kind of weak. Using La scalas and a sub I heard crazy detail and sound, so I thought that 5.1 was just kind of a waste. Then I found a local home theater center that sold Klipsch HT systems and it put me in my place. I just bought ps3 and its wonderful for movies so far but my surround set up sucks. the La scalas and sub are being powered through a cheap sony receiver and I can do very little with it to change the surround sound. Ive been looking at new receivers and found this Marantz SR5600 Receiver. It looks great and has been slightly used but for $300 its almost hard to say no. I have an old 2238 stereo receiver that is still really nice and sounds great, so Im assuming that the Marantz SR5600 Receiver will be nice also and have the power to run my set up. DO you all have any thoughts. I dont want to buy this just to be let down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommyboy Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 Marantz makes great receivers, and products. If it has HDMI, I say go for it. I only say that because you can get HDMI capable receivers with great power for around 500 bucks now...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
