Which Home Theater Receiver?
I am considering the Denon 4310($1,600 on sale), the Marantz 6004
($1,249) and NAD 747 ($1,299). If anyone can shed some light on any of these receivers I would appreciate it. I have had some problems with some older NAD pieces (although when they worked they sounded great). Has NAD improved in reliability? Thanks in Advance RM |

Good reccomentations spring naturally from a good understanding of requirements. First, what are you looking for in a HT receiver? |

I am more interested in music (sound quality) as it will be used 75% for music. I will only be using 5 channels and my front speakers are Paradigm Studio 100 V5. Thanks |

I think they're terrific, and the reviews are generally excellent. -- Andy Barss |

Thanks You should be careful due to your speakers (I own the V4 version of the Studio 100's). The big Paradigm speaker requires an amplifier section that is better than the ordinary. You would need to make sure that the amp can drive a difficult load. The 100's are much harder to drive than smaller Paradigm's. A decent way to ensure that the receiver can handle a hard load is if it increases or even doubles its power into a 4 ohm load. Please remember to get the detail specification on the amplifier section. By the way, you should also consider Cambridge Audio receivers. Cambridge and Marantz are available at Audio Adviser. The Cambridge 640R puts out at least 100 watts per channel and is on sale for about $700.00. Good luck! |
