I really wanted to go with separates but nothing is available in my price range - Outlaw not shipping and Rotel backordered like crazy. The Pioneer Elite VSX-49TX can be purchased for $2425 delivered from an authorized Elite dealer and seems to be a fantastic product. I have no way to see or listen to one so I would be ordering blind. My thoughts are that it can be "upgraded" later with the addition of a high powered 2 or 3 channel amp for the front speakers and that this receiver will suffice as a pre/pro for quite some time. I am aware of the soon to come 49TXI but see no need for firewire. I really was leaning toward the Denon 5803 but it costs $3400. My speakers are Audio Concepts Inc. Jaguars, Emeralds and dual Titan II subs.
Are there any quality or performance issues that I should be aware of? How do you like the supplied remote control? Do you know what the component video switching circuitry frequency range is?
For a good laugh, I am UPGRADING from an old pro-logic JVC receiver that has to be about 12-14 years old and was not a good one then (cheap)! Think I will hear an improvement???
