Ok, I know there are 100's of these post everyday, but you guys are the greatest when it comes to opinions!
Anyway I can get a HK AVR-520 or a Newcastle R-756 for the same price. Which should I get.
Here is some helpful info:
This is my first HT receiver. $500 is my budget. 2-channel music listening is very important too me. 5.1 surround is good enough for me, but I know the HK has more option than the Newcastle. The music to HT ratio is at least 50/50 and maybe up to 75% music to 25% HT. (Not really sure how this will pan out. Right now music is more important, but as stated, this is my first HT receiver and that ratio might change when I get hooked!) I have a pair of GR-research A/V-1s and will be building 3 more to go with the HT receiver. I also have a sealed 122L tempest powered by the PE 250w plate amp. I listen to classical, jazz, little girl with a guitar music, 80's, grunge, etc...
If you need any more info, let me know.
Any advise will be appreciated.
Thanks!
