WTB: Receiver

[IDSkot]

Trying to get a 4 channel, I can do 2. Around 50-100W / channel. I want one with S/PDIF input.

I don't really want to spend over $200, if possible.
Anyone have an extra receiver laying around? Or could recommend me one? I checked on HTS, and they didn't have much in the budget range.

Negros want $1.3K for a receiver. :crap:

[silvercookie]

fuck yo couch ngga

[hoss]

Get a dennon from amazon.com.

[Spider Monkey]

I do. I just replaced mine with a new set up for my HTPC this weekend. Willing to let it go for under 200 to a forumer.

I will get you the model number tonight if you are interested.

[IDSkot]

I am interested.
Let's see what the Money gots.

HT In a Box. IIRC, the receiver was pretty good.

I'm actually using mine right now... It got moved to computer duty. Still the best money I ever spent on any HT product.

But, I'm pretty certain there are 'new' models out there that do the same thing plus have updates on decoding and what not.

Woot. Price war.

Capitalism much?

Price check?

[joetama]

I have no idea... I'm not a HT buff as I once was. I'm more into two-channel SQ, but google can help you I'm sure.

[hoss]

Price check?

Google...

[IDSkot]

I don't know the model numbers.

[joetama]

Google "YAMAHA" go to their website, find something with specs you want then use google again to find a price you like. ;)

[hoss]

I don't know the model numbers.

I know you are not this stupid... Do your own research fag.

[joetama]

Yamaha or Denon... You really can't go wrong with either...

[IDSkot]

What about that HT In a Box, Tama?

You're honestly better off with TV speakers.

I remember in a thread you said that your Pops told you something along the line that a smart man saves his money.

Apparently you're as dumb as rocks, and I'm Einstein level.

That is an old old old Rotel... Maybe 10 years plus.

[Echo42987]

Ain't nothing wrong w/ that Rotel isn't bad

damn, and they were that advanced back then? shit.

[joetama]

Ain't nothing wrong w/ that Rotel isn't bad

Probably right, but I pay too much for something that age.

Uhhh yea...

:fyi: 1999 was 10 Years ago.

[Echo42987]

Uhhh yea...

[silvercookie]

hmmm, seems longer. no homo, thats not what she said.

[joetama]

I usually get that...

[JimJ]

WTF do you need 4 channels for?

[joetama]

Two is plenty right Jim!

[IamDeMan]

I don't even know what yours is.

But since you're the Monkey it's probably really bad ass and 'spensive.

:rofl2:

[IamDeMan]

WTF do you need 4 channels for?

Indeed, 5 is the proper minimum.

[JimJ]

Two is plenty right Jim!

Well, the only use I see for 4 channels is bi-amping a stereo pair, and I'd rather use a separate PA instead of a receiver for that. Kind of useless for surround with only 4.

[JimJ]

Or maybe quadrophonic, but nobody releases things in that anymore :D

[gymfreak101]

Don,t want to step on spidermonkey's toes, but I can link you to some good stuff if you want. I probably have a reciever also. Iam going to be listing some stuff later I have some velodyne subs I am going to offload for the cheapest you will ever see them

[IDSkot]

WTF do you need 4 channels for?

I spaced.
2, 3, or 5.
Do work, Jimmy J.

Just link shit. Monkey's not even telling me what unit he has.

[JimJ]

Do you need a receiver, or would an integrated amp without the tuner section work?

$200 could buy a nice 2-channel integrated that'd last a long time...

I honestly don't know the difference in the two.
Is the only difference the tuner section?

[hoss]

Do you need audio processing, EQ, source switching, etc, or just amplified power?

You need a reciever, I am willing to bet. How many sources are you looking to plug into it?

[gymfreak101]

7.1 reciever

I can find more easy but have always liked harmon. check everyday they have the avr 354 sometimes usually goes for about 180 plus shipping. they ship from ATL also.

It's gunna end up being my PC, and later down the line my HTPC & TV.
At first it's just going to be my PC, though.

I want to try to stay away from refurbished electronics. I have the worst luck with refurbed electronics.

thats a direct manufacturer refurb though, otherwise save 40 more dollars and newegg and amazon have the pioneer hk 819 for 240 shipped. really reviewed well and has features that usually come on 400-500 dollars recievers. always get a reciever with hdmi because it is becoming the standard.

Lot of integrateds (and preamps) have multiple sources, all of mine have. EQ and processing is better done outboard anyway :D

Monkey, what receiver do you have?

It is the STR-K850P

http://www.nodevice.com/images/sm/big/2008_08_09_14_50_26/7693_1.jpg

[IDSkot]

Decent power output, but I can't seem to make anything else out on it... nor can I find anything on it online.

How old is this thing?

[bigtoyota479]

You must not be searching properly, noob. Here is the User Guide for it, tells you everything you need to know.

http://www.manualshark.org/manualshark/files/4/pdf_7595.pdf

[bigtoyota479]

Judging from the user guide, it's a 2003 or newer. :fyi:

[bigtoyota479]

Also, it's part of the HT-6600DP system with speakers and other stuff. Probably why you're having difficulty finding just the receiver.

[ngsm13]

Onkyo 606, get it. Cheap and has everything you need and more, won't need to upgrade late.

Or get that HTIB, if the receiver is comparable to the 606 (which I think it is, it might even be it...)

I don't know if the receiver in that HTIB is comparable to the 606.

And, I wouldn't use the speakers in the HTIB... so, I mean... it'd kind of be pointless to get a HTIB. I have 5 TB 2.5" speakers I got with a Logitech system that work well enough until I get more money for better components... and I think either I'll keep this TB sub or I'll turn one of my JBL subs into a HT sub tuned to like... 15hz.

Early to mid 2000's. What else do you want to know about it?
