I was wondering if I could get some advice from everyone.Right now I have a Sony str-dg500 receiver that is on its way out and I am needing a new receiver. I am looking for something at least 7.1 and in the sub $300 range. Main thing I need is at least 4 Hdmi inputs. I would like internet ready but it is not a dealbreaker for me. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.Thanks

The receivers that are 7.1, like the Pioneer 921, Denon 1712, Onkyo 609 and Yamaha 571, seem to start at about $350-$400. If you're O.K. with a factory refurbished receiver (with a one year warranty) we often recommend Denon's and Onkyo's Ac4l.com.
They currenty have the Denon 1611 (last years model) for $219.99 + sh. http://www.accessories4less.com/make-a-store/item/DENAVR1611/DENON-AVR-1611-7.1-3D-Multi-Source/Multi-Zone-Receiver/1.html
