There HAD to have been a problem with the receiver S&V was testing. I upgraded from a NAD T750 (50x5) to a Marantz SR5200 (85x5) and the one this that REALLY stood out was how much LESS noise there was at high levels. I'm quite sure that I can't tell the difference between 50 and 85 watts per channel, but the SR5200 has more than enough power to drive all 5 of my speakers (Paradigm) to what I consider uncomfortable levels. Considering how inexpensive these new Marantz receivers are, I can see how they had to skimp on more than just the POS remotes
I'm very happy with my SR5200. Screw that Pan&Scan lovin' magazine! ;-)
