I am going to purchase a pair of the Axiom M3Ti bookshelf speakers, so I need to buy an integrated amp or receiver for them.

Which would you recommend: 1) Pioneer Elite A-35R or 2) Panasonic SA-XR25?

I've heard many nice things about the XR25, but I've also heard that it can be weak in the lower registers (b/c of its crossover, etc) and that the sound can be fatiguing.

At the same time, I've heard great things from a few people about the A-35R, and a guy over at the Head-Fi forums had even posted that he preferred the A-35R to the Nad C320bee. Still, but there's very little info about the A-35R out there.

If anyone can help me with this I'd greatly appreciate it :)

Thanks,

Andrés
