Luke I suggest you do a search for Nuance on the forum but I'm afraid you're not going to like what you find. IMO You'd be further ahead with different speakers then a different receiver.

what do you suggest? for speakers?

Luke I see from your other thread that you spent $1600 so using that as a budget you've got quite a wide variety to choose from. Given that you're in Canada you're going to get the most bang for your buck buying a Canadian brand so I'd suggest you audition Energy, Mirage, PSB, Paradigm, Totem, Athena, and Axiom. Paradigm make a great product that has a wide variety of models to choose from. Note that you will likely end up with 5-6 bookshelf sized speakers plus a subwoofer with that price range which will give you a much better sounding setup then what the nuance could ever do...that said the nuance might play louder (until it dies) but quantity doesn't equal quality Would you be willing to assemble your own speakers or subwoofer? If so that would be one way to stretch your budget a long way. For example there's a company in BC selling a subwoofer kit for $400 cdn that would easily beat most of the comercial units costing much more.
