Yamaha RX-V2500 or RX-V659?

[ArchieH]

Am looking to upgrade a receiver for my home theatre set up and was wondering which to get? I have BIC 62CLRs for centre and fronts with
JBL Cinevisions as surrounds, thanks in advance

if you decide on the 659, check out the htr-5890 instead, can be had for great price. ( under $400)

I am also trying to choose between these three receivers. I am also curious about the RX-V659 (or HTR-5890) with the Behringer A500 to run the fronts vs. the RX-V2500. Any advice would be appreciated. TIA.
