Integrated Amp or Pre/Amp for around $200? (1 Viewer)

[AaronD]

I'm looking for something to go into my bedroom... I eventually plan on using a Sony CE775 for a source and the remnants of an AR HC6 set for stereo listening only. I've seen a pioneer elite integrated amp at my local reseller for around $200 but I don't know much about it. What else is out there?

Thanks!
Aaron

If you want stereo only, look into NAD or Rotel - I once bought a used NAD C340 for $225. This is a 50 wpc integrated, and a classic that's won numerous awards all through its life. If you're looking at buying something new, I'm not too sure what your options are. I had an Onkyo stereo receiver that I bought for $200, the TX-8211. It was pretty nice, but the NAD was a lot better IMO.
