Posting for a friend of mine, who's in the markeet for a receiver. He's looking at the ~$400 AV Receivers from Panasonic and Yamaha, and the local sales guy is recommending the higher end receivers, since he has high quality mains (Vandersteen) which were bought about 15 yrs ago. My question - is he better off jumping up to the next level of receivers, ~$700 or $800, or sticking with the original ~$400 receivers and take advantage of his older amp he has with his existing pro-logic system and hook his mains up to that and leave the AV receiver to handle the rears and center? I know there's no absolute answer to this, but do the extra $300 or $400 receivers mainly give you more power/headroom and cleaner sound, which he could get from his existing amp?
