I'm getting closer to finally going through with my plans and getting some DIY speakers - GR-Reasearch AV2s or AV3s. To start, I'd just like to go with the 2, then adding a sub, then the center and surrounds.
My idea is instead of buying a cheaper HTiB or individual components all at once, I'll just slowly build with quality components that will last me a long time. Therefore, the receiver should match this idea. I want something that will last a while. I realize that with the technology changing as quickly as it it, inputs/outputs will change - but this doesn't mean the performance of the receiver will decrease quickly as well, does it?
So what would you recommend? I don't want to set a budget now, as I don't know what my options are. I'd just like ideas and explanations as to why I should make sure to get "XYZ" feature or whatever.
Thanks a lot for any help.
