My HK Avr 20 recently decided to not want to turn on, so I am in the market for a new AVR. I am basically looking for a decent low priced replacement. without driving myself crazy browsing the net I came up with these two based on my price range:
Denon 1709
Onkyo SR507
So I figured I would join this forum to get some expert opinions and answers to my questions.
Will it be a problem if I use my antique of a surround system a Cambridge Soundworks ensemble II surround system with one of these or any new receiver?
Are these receivers adequate for a living room approx. 17x20?
And when i do upgrade the speakers would a Paradigm Cinema 70 CT System fit the bill for a room that size?
The system is primarily used for the basic movies and a combination of old school rock and classical music.
Thanks for any help you can provide.
