You can certainly take this advice-or you can also consider a high quality class A or AB amplifier along with a newer receiver with preouts as your next upgrade. The Pioneer Elite SC series are...

As I said before, there any MANY good receivers in this price range. Everyone has their own favorites.
With Anthem, I believe you must order from a dealer and cannot get one online. Some here...

Hi Mike. I'm sure most of the folks here will recommend getting a receiver that has preout connections. This is very good advice.
Pre-outs will allow you to add an amplifier in the future to get...

Doesn't Adcom also have a trade in program for used Adcom equipment?
You may wish to explore that option to get the best bang for your buck from that amplifier. I don't think the traded equipment...

What I'm saying is that with the equipment I am running, I get excellent sound quality. However, I don't believe it's that much improved going from 5.1 to 7.1.

Nope. The sound is just not that much improved, if at all. And yes, I have a good room location and run Audyssey XT32 a few times to get it right.

I upgraded about 18 months ago and wished I hadn't done it. I don't think I hear anything more out of my 7.1 than I did with a properly set up and balanced 5.1 system. As referenced above, the side...

Personally, I think the speakers from the Polk eBay store are brand new, never before sold. Polk just sells them as refurbs with a shorter warranty period and no other perks.

I would probably choose the Parasound 5250 but I know that there are many here who love the Emotivas because of the great price/value. However, I have no first hand knowledge of either one of those...

Not too hot. However, I use a laptop cooler on top of it for additional security which runs off the rear USB.

Very good review! Thank you for taking the time to write it up and share your observations with all of us.

I have an Onkyo 3010, which I love and is a great receiver, but I'm sort of regretting...

SOLD. Mods please mark as SOLD.

BUMP. One pair still for sale. They look and sound like brand new.

I was running a pair of Rotel RB1572s, each was 250 watts x 2 channels. The Rotels were good amps but the Parasound Halo is certainly an upgrade, if not more (to my ears).

I recently upgraded to a Parasound Halo A31 (with black faceplate) to drive my front three speakers. I instantly noticed a difference in music. Things sounded much clearer with crisp highs and...

I have the Parasound A31 for my fronts and an NAD t975 for my four rears. I thought the NAD was a very nice sounding amplifier but when I listened to the Parasound, I soon realized it was on a whole...

You are welcome!
I'm glad you (and your brother-in-law) liked the receiver and everything worked out for both of us. Best wishes.

For Sale is my nearly new, Onkyo receiver, Model TX-NR3008. I purchased this unit new in Mar 2011 from an authorized dealer and used it daily until Summer 2012, when I...
