Hey guys, first time surround sounder here. Really stoked about getting my first surround system. Going economical but I do wanna get the most for my money I can. I bought an Infinity 5 speaker set with 8" sub (TSS-450). Got the speakers for $399. Couldnt really go to the $699 set.
I am now looking to purchase the reciever. In the economical $399 - $499 range there are mostly Sony, Yamaha, and some Denon at my retailer. I have not heard such good things about Sony. I have always heard Yamaha makes quality stuff. For $399 there is a Yamaha RX-V559. Its new out from Yamaha and I believe is the replacement for the RX-V557. It is a 6.1 and I have 5.1 speakers but I may get the rear later.
Any thoughts on this reciever or Yamaha in general? Or anyone other suggestions in this price range?
