Hey everyone, I am new to the scene and wanted some help in purchasing a receiver. I want to spend 500 - 600 or less. I have 4 wharfedale 8.1s , yamaha sub, and getting the wharfedale center. I dont know if I need a receiver, or preamp and poweramp. Plese let me know what you would do in my situation. Also some receivers I have looked at are the onkyo TX-SR504, marantz sr3001 and marantz sr4001, and yamaha rx-v659. Let me know about these and what you would do. Thanks

All this way oversized magic wires, plugged into an outlet strip, that looks to have just a "REGULAR" piece of wire feeding it...yet this dealer from where this image is taken, CLAIMS all these magic wires make him HEAR Emotion, pace, blah blah blah...Any logic in this nonsense?

Hey everyone,
I have an apartment and am looking into getting a system for it. Mainly for music listening and also home theater. I am looking into getting 4 wharfedale 8.1s, a sub ( not sure what ), and the receiver ( not sure what ). Im looking to spend 1400 or less for the whole system. Any suggestions on these speakers or different kinds.

I will be writing more about this neat, little $80 24/96 firewire device over the next few days as I do some recording with it. Cheapskate is not the only one who looks for a bargain, you know. And yes, his Marantx SA 11 is a bargain considering what it does. Headphone output control on the front panel of this little 6" x 4.5" x 1" tall device makes this a truly user friendly. Your boss will never see it!

Hi all
Not sure if this is the place to post adverts for cables to sell? If not, can I be pointed in the right direction before posting? i don't want to break any rules!

Thanks
