I am looking for a reciever to complement my Klipsch Quintet iii speakers, its between the Denon 687 and the Harmon/Kardon 145. I am simply looking for an entry level AVR and these are two that I came up with. This will be put in a small theatre room (<200ft). Also, is the set up mike a useful extra or just a gimmick? These are the choices I have narrowed it down to. If you would like to confuse me more recommend a third avr to look at. LOL. Your advice is greatly appreciated.

Hi John

HK does not do enough Beta testing...their receivers have a reputation for having problems...if you get a good one, you should be ok...however, if you get one that has problems you will be sorry...I would get the Denon...please keep in touch with me.
