Re: Best 5.1 A/V Receiver for under $500?

Thanks for the recommendations. I've never cared much for Panasonic, but I wasn't sure if the company had done anything lately to change that. I'm glad the hesitancy came through.

I used to like Sony, but their quality control issues (even on some of the ES stuff) bothers me. Yamaha has always been one of the better of the mass-market Japanese brands, but I know that they've had a reputation for some harsh sounding amps and how their filters work... moreso on some of the digital processing that they've used.

Rotel and Outlaw I've never heard, but I've read about them briefly... it looks interesting. I had a Denon tape deck years ago that was a trooper until one of the channels cut out. It was a gorgeous deck when it worked. I've also read a lot of great stuff about their amps. My stepfather used to swear by them.
