Video Asylum

Hello -

I'm currently in the process of adding HT to my 2-channel setup (Art Audio Vinyl One, Quicksilver MidMono, Basis, B&W).

I really don't need radio - so would prefer a integrated AV. My TV is about 3 years old and is limited to 1080i (Sony).

Due to space issues - I'll be running Polk RM7 (rear and center) with the B&W's for mains with an HSU 3.3.

I'm looking at getting another DVD which upsamples to 1080i - and is better for audio.

I have a shortlist -

Cambridge 640
Rotel 1057
Arcam 280
Primare SP20 (I may be able to swing one used).

I have the Quicksilvers for sale here - to fund this change.

I like the simplicity of the Primare (changing of user inputs, etc.) But other than the Primare - are there other integrated AV's I should look at?

Thanks -
