I am looking for a used stereo receiver, for my cabin location. I want a
quality receiver, not the junk from Circuit City, etc. I don't need
audiophile stuff, just something that exceeds klh, rca etc etc.


I am thinking that Denon might be a good choice. I would like at least 50
wants per channel. I have no interest in home theater or 5 channels, etc.
This is for stereo only.

My budget is $200-300.

What Denon model would be good for me? Is there another brand that I
should look for? What is a good online site for used stereo equipment ?

Thanks for any help !!

Denon is generally good stuff. I'd also look for NAD, tho they tend to
lean more towards integrated amps than receivers.

Why don't you look around for a good, used tube receiver from HH Scott,
Fisher, Harman-Kardon, Sherwood, Marantz, et al. All standard parts, and much
better sound quality than from a piece of new gear in that price range.

Plus, you can use it for a space heater this winter.

I personally doubt that they'll have _better_ sound quality. They may have a
'valve tone' which is fine if you like that kind of thing.

Pshawww! Tube receivers don't get THAT hot.

I would check out harmanaudio on Ebay. They sell reconditioned receivers
with the full warranty.

If you don't need AM, look at an Advent 300.

Bad news, DENON = Designed and Engineered Not to Operate Normally

How do I know this?.....repairing Denons for 21 years.

If I were you, I would look at a Yamaha ( bought a HT receiver for myself
and couldnt be happier ). Their older Yamaha recievers DO have a slightly
smoother sound to them, but they are solid and non- fatiguing.

My other choice would be NAD....but that is a distant second.
