I saw a lot of positive comments on avsforum.com for the Pioneer
VSX-1014TX.

It sounded more clear to me than my NAD T761. It has 110w x 7 ch MOSFET
amp, rated at all channels driven (that is important). It also has a 5
band eq, THX certified, a 192kHz/24bit DAC. You can find it online for
$400-500. It is a great bargain. I liked its sound better than the $800
Denon and Yamahas.
