<font color='#000000'>Hi everyone, I am looking for best receiver I can buy for less than 1500usd, with 1500 being the absolute maximum (because that means around 2000+ cnd dollars up here). I have the following speaker set-up: PSB Stratus Bronze fronts, PSB C6I center, PSB Century 300i's for the rear, and an older Cerwin Vega SUB-150 for the sub. I am looking at about 80%HT and 20%Music, and have a small room now, but will be moving the system into a bigger room (I hope) when I find a house. Once in a house, the HT/Music ratio will increase slightly in favour of music because of the extra privacy (I live in an apartment building right now). I don't like gimicks on receivers but I do like some features like established surround modes like Pro-Logic II, DTS, DDigital, etc. Most importantly, I am interested in sound, I dont want to be underpowered and I want to bring out the clarity that the PSB's are capable of. If any of you know of a quality receiver that fits the bill, post it in here please. Please don't bash other people suggestions in your post, just why the receiver you mention is good for my situation. I could use all the help I can get because I am torn between a few receivers after hearing them. Thanks for all the help, and I'll let you all know what I ultimately end up purchasing.</font>
