Need info please...

I need some advice.

I have just lost my Aiwa AV-D58 Receiver . It was my first SS system and hate to see it go. I'd like to fix it, but I don't think it's worth it. It stoped outputting sound, or at least after a few seconds of sound it would go silent. First started to the FM/AM, then the CD input, and then finally the digital went out. All within a year, this year to be exact. Had it for about ten years. Not sure what happened . I even checked the inside, no dust or burn marks of any kind .

So now I'm in need of a new reciever ASAP! So what reciever will work with my previous setup?!? All 5 speakers have 80W and 8 omes of power. Sub is 12V 60Hz. I don't want to spend a fortune. Just need a good reciever between $150-400, no more... no less. I was thinking about a Yamaha, since I've heard good things about em.

What do you guys think I should do or buy?!?

.....Graphics, I'd say get you $400 dollar's worth of Yamaha....wade on in there....your speakers are rated to take 80 watts and are 8 ohm speakers...."$400 dollar's worth of Yamaha to go, please, and fresh-dropped fries if you don't mind"....

Yamaha for <$400

I recently purchased the Yamaha HTR-5860 for just over $300 from an authorized dealer and would recommend it. With new models out, I would also check for deals on the RX-V1500 or HTR-5890 models.

Cool thanks for the info!! So those brands are rated with the sub and speakers I have? I'd hate to buy something and have it blow something! I'll start "shoping" around.
