    buying used/old receivers for a simple HT setup

    haha mailing it is too much of a hassle and a waste of money. sadly, that 1 bid isnt mine. it's someone else...which means we may have a bidding war going on in a few days :( if this doesnt work out i might coax a relative into upgrading their system and giving me their old receiver

    buying used/old receivers for a simple HT setup

    I've been looking at this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Onkyo-TX-DS575X-5-1-Channel-650-Watt-Receiver-/271132726390?pt=Receivers_Tuners&hash=item3f20c51476 Is this good enough for what I want to do? Do I need anything extra with my setup?

    buying used/old receivers for a simple HT setup

    For the laptop/mp3 player, I was assuming I would connect it to the receiver via aux-to-RCA(L/R) cable. AFAIK, the laptop does not have mini-toslink. I don't think digital will be a concern at all, mainly sticking to analog.

    buying used/old receivers for a simple HT setup

    I'm sorry, I lost you there. I dont know what a mini-toslink is. As far as I know, the Polk Monitor30s connect via speaker wire...and the subwoofer connects via RCA or speaker wire as well, given that I have to route it from receiver > sub > speakers. So these selections are your pick for what I...

    buying used/old receivers for a simple HT setup

    Thanks for replying! Ok, so I'm down to 3 options. I was looking around ebay too and found a few, but the pricing including shipping still rolled out to around 75 so I'm leaning away from that site. So in your opinion, which would be best for what I'm looking for? Edit: I forgot to mention that...
