jthonen,

Just a brief follow up. If you want to go with a new receiver, I'd definitely put the Anthem MRX310 at the top of your list for an audition. The strongest argument for this unit is the room correction is supposed to be top notch and Anthem is an extremely well respected brand. I've not heard of any QC issues with their products; at least not in the receivers.

Onkyo/Integra are certainly worth an audition but to back up Tetrall's point, I would have reliability concerns. Specifically, their HDMI circuitry has been a significant problem. I own two Integras and love the sound but have had to return one defective unit and the other is having intermittent switching issues as well. My next purchase will not be another Integra...

Happy listening and good luck. Please keep us posted on your findings.

Cheers,

T Cobe
