Need help choosing a receiver (1 Viewer)

Hello, I am looking for some of your help/opinions on a home theater receiver for my home theater. I have 5 polk audio rc85i speakers and a polk psw125 sub.Watch a lot of movies, do a decent amount of gaming and occasionally listen to music.Looking for the best receiver to get the best sound out of my setup. I wouldn't mind wifi and Bluetooth but am not really into the pandora and spotify and that sort of stuff.Any help would be great.

I own and recommend Yamaha. They sound great, are reliable, and priced reasonably. Another good choice is Denon. Best of luck!

Want/need zone 2?Want a pre-programmed remote?Need/want pre outs?Need/want app control?Have a turntable?Have a Wii/VHS?Need/want front HDMI/USB?Budget?Want one with a 1, 2 or 3 year warranty?

Welcome to the forum! Giving us your price range will help us, help you.

Sorry I should have given more detail:
-no zone 2
-using a universal remote
-no app control
-no turntable
-using ps4 for gaming
-front usb would be helpful
-warranty obviously longer is better

For price I would like to keep it around $500 or less, I think for my setup spending more might just be overkill.

Thanks folks

I do like Yamaha and my previous reciever was a Yamaha RX-V995 that I actually still have and plan to use with my pc once I have the spare cash for a pair of speakers.

But check out Yamaha, Denon and Marantz as well. You may like the Marantz the most but my suggestion is try all three. Denon is also a really nice receiver. I always suggest buying more than you need so you do not outgrow it in the near future. I would get a reciever with more power, more HDMI's and you might as well get one with 4K switching. You may not need it right now but if you decide to take the 4K plunge you will not have to upgrade if you get 4K passthru and Dolby Atmos! Even if you do not get into it you have the capability to down the road and that will save you from another upgrade. Just something to consider.
