Reciever

I have about $900.00 to spend on a new reciever can any of you make any good suggestions?

Also what is the best way to hook up a dvd player(S-video,Componant)?

The Onkyo TX-DS797 has everything anyone could want. Available as low as $799.

Component (three cables for video, not to be confused with composite) is the best connection. The Onkyo 797 will do component switching. S-Video is also quite good. Check what your TV will accept and use the best possible connection.

i agree with skar on the Onkyo recommendation.
You might also want to look at the Marantz SR-8000 (you may well still be able to find one on closeout...it was originally $1200)

Failing that, check out the Marantz SR-7002 or -8002.

also, some of the Denon models are nice.



For DVD hookup, I'm a fan of component video.

DENON 3802---you cannot go wrong here
7 amplified channels, 6.1 processing, and boy does it have some raw power.

I got mine for $800 shipped from www.6ave.com

you have to call and talk to a salesman to get the deal. If you order from the webpage its $1200.

good luck
