Alright all, here's a question...I'm off soon for Grad school and will be in a dorm. I want to take one of my receivers with me, but I"m not sure which one, opinions? Oh, and they won't really be used as relievers, just mostly as an amp, input from a line level source...ok so here are the choices....rememeber space is limited....they will be powering "white van" personally modded 8 ohm 3 way towers (2 ea)(picked up for $15) and Polk Tsi 100's (2 ea). No movie/theatre work, strictly music and run using outputs A+B....
Choices:
Onkyo TX-6500MKII (Huge [20inWx6inh][40lbs] and 120Wpc)(dead silent though)
Luxman R-1030 (Powering JBL L10's currently)
Marantz Model 26 (13 wpc)
Sony STR-D1090 (Pro-Logic Reciever, dead silent, 80wpc)
and the overkill QSC GX3 (stereo, 300 wpc, heavy, built like a tank)
Oh, and as a side note, I spotted a mint pair of SDA's on the CA for $290/pair.
So far I know I don't want to take the Luxman, or the Onkyo if I can help it, but if the others are poor choices...
