Wow, that's a nice setup, otherwise. You are basically downgrading to go from that Sony to something under $300. Cash issue or did it die?

Newegg.com has the ONKYO HT-RC260 7.2-Channel Home Theater Receiver for $320 with free shipping right now:

If you're a member of their e-mail list, there is a coupon code out here for another $20 off (which puts it just under your $300 budget)

I just picked up the Pionner 1019. It's top-rated by CNet, and a friend of mind had it since last summer. He paid $450, and a year later it's now $299 at Amazon. It's a great deal for a device which decodes DolbyTruHD and has its own iPod dock.

Good choice. I bought it when it first came out for $500.
