I'm debating between getting an H/K 630 or a NAD T763. I'm wondering which would be better to go w/ ascend acoustics speakers, if it really makes a difference. I will probably only be using 6.1, so the 7.1 fuctionality of the H/k won't be of much use. I'm just wondering about an overall quality...

Other than sheer volume and power, are there any benefits of separates over a single receiver? In other words, is a receiver w/ 110wpc going to sound the same as a pre/pro with a power amp running at 110wpc? (Assuming the receiver and separtes are both of high quality, and the receiver actually...

I got into the HT world not to long ago. I only recently heard of NAD. I might give them a shot w/ this one. It's 6.1 and is 60 wpc, which is exactly the power I'm looking for. I don't know much about NAD, other than what I've read. There are no dealers anywhere near me, so I would have to order...

I noticed that the dpr-1001 retails on H/K's website for $1499.99. I found it at Circuit City for $999.99, and at www.soundcity.com for $521.19, which seems like a great deal. This receiver is rated at 50watts x 7. The avr-430 is rated at 65watts x 7. It retails for $999.99 and is at...

I'm looking for a 50" or less 16:9 HDTV between $1000-2000. I value quality of picture more so than size because it will go in my apartment and my seating distance will be about 6' to 8' feet away. I will be watching alot of dvds and digital cable as well as playing video games. I also work at...

Ok, I'm looking at getting a complete ascend accoustics speaker set. 4 cbm-170s and 1 cmt-340c. I found a web site that has a refurb NAD T742 for $399.20. On the same site they have an HK AVR-325 for $525.13. Which sounds like the better deal? They are both 50wpc. The HK is a 7.1 receiver, which...

Would a Harmon Kardon AVR230 work well with 4 cbm-170s and 1 cmt-340c? It's 50wpc at 8ohms. It doesn't say what it's rated at for 4 ohms, which the ascend accoustics use. Or if it will even run at 4 ohms. Is $499 a good price for it? Is $599 an even better price for the dpr1001?

I'm about to build my first HT. I have another thread in speakers and subwoofers discussing the best speakers for me. I'm looking at buying a Yamaha htr-5660 receiver currently. The speakers I'm considering are the Klipsch synergies, the Paradigm Cinemas, the athena point 5s, and I've recently...

I'm 18, just moved out on my own, and am looking to put together my first HT. I live in a fairly small apartment, so I'm not wanting something that will go to ear bleeding volumes. I value quality more so than quantity. I've looked at the athena micra 6 speakers, the klipsch quintets, and at the...
