    Yamaha RX-V2600

    I guess that was a bit high, but then again, this Ultimate is a Brick and Morter store vs on the Internet... The price wasn't buggin me so much as why it was marked as closeout... I may go back there this weekend and ask about it if I get a chance...

    Yamaha RX-V2600

    I agree... Thats what I was thinking too, but I looked at the tag again and I looked at the actual Receiver to see if maybe they mis marked it, but it said 2600 right on it... I waited around for like 20 minute to talk to someone about it but they were pretty busy, I guess with it being so...

    Yamaha RX-V2600

    I'm looking at the 2600 and the 4600 too as I'm looking at getting a new receiver soon... I don't really see enought difference in the 4600 to make it worth the extra cash over the 2600... Do any of you???
