Hello all,
I am downsizing my travel system and have about $1,000 to spend. This sum is only for the receiver/amp. The system is intended for HT and music reproduction. I am keeping my speakers and cd player. Here are the options that I'm struggling with:
1) Blow the whole sum on an NAD T7x3 AV receiver. I've read nothing bad about this piece of kit and it seems that it is aimed at the audio market first. Obviously, the receiver will do double duty as HT and 2-ch.
2) Buy a $500 HT receiver (probably HK) and then also buy a used tube integrated amp. In essence, this will give me two systems. The integrated amp would most likely be the Onix SP-3 which has gotten some pretty decent reviews.
So, if it was up to you, which would you do?
