Pioneer VSXC100 vs Yamaha HTR5630

[jiml]

I am starting out in the home cinema route, and am going to buy some Tannoy FX5.1 speakers. However, I am having difficulty deciding on an AV receiver. The choices I have available to me are:
Pioneer VSXC100, Sony STRDE495, Yamaha HTR5630. Any experience with the above or advice will be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Jim

My personal preference would be the Pioneer with those speakers. I wouldn't go the Sony route. The Yamaha is a nice product, I just think the Pioneer would be a better match.
