Jim Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 Moray, Not offense taken, I am in full agreement on what you say. Only reason I stated what I did is because the OP said he wanted to keep things minimal. What I did however on my amp, was have someone upgrade it with the circuitry, wiring, and caps. They were somewhat local, so it was a win for me. Parts sourced from China for the most part, and redone here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flat4 Posted March 20, 2016 Author Share Posted March 20, 2016 So been watching some movies with the wife this weekend.She is encouraging me to add center and surrounds. So i need to grab a multi channel receiver. I need pre outs for an external amp, sub out of course, and bluetooth connectivity.Oh and fairly cheap too.Lol Any suggestions?

yamahaSHO Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 Receivers with preouts are in the $600 and up range these days, which is pretty frustrating. I recently got a Marants NR1605 so that I can have all the features, surround sound, and at least preouts for the front two main speakers.

Looking at the Marantz SR5008 for 389 on adcs 4 less.That might be the one for me! Edited March 20, 2016 by flat4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 It has a very nice sound to it.I'd take the Marantz over the Onkyo. I had both the SR-5004 (few years jr), as well as the TX-NR809. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
