Hi, I need some advice.I have been an audiophile since I was 6 y/o and took a tape recorded Elton John song to kindergarden for show and tell, lol. I listen to all types of music, from deep bass pounding dance music, classic rock, rap, oprea and classical. Music makes up about 90% of what I listen to. I need some advice for a receiver, I don't have a huge budget due to this being my first house, my age and expenses. This is for my living room/family room area (22X26 approx), I just put in hardwood floors, I am not sure how much of a difference the flooring makes, but I would imagine it does. I have some nice polk's that are hardly producing the sound they should with a decent amp.
My budget is $250. Does anybody know of a receiver new or used that would be a good choice for my system. I am mainly interested in bass, clarity and obviously price. I am open to used and or older receivers. I am considering a Yamaha HTR-5940. I have heard certain Yamaha's and tend to be partial to them.
This is my first post and if I have done anything wrong or off, let me know.
Thanks...
Components I currently have:
Onkyo-TX-9511
Sony-STR-K740P (my first receiver from my theater in a box)
