Hi, I am new to here.
Recently I bought two Monitor 50s for front speakers and also LG 55" 1080p 120hz lcd with 1080p upconversion blu ray player.
I am thinking about buyin cd changer and CS2 for center too.
I never had have home theater or audio system.
Now I am looking for entry level receiver. Which receiver will be best for this system between Yamaha rx v 467, 665, denon AVR 590, and H/K avr 1600?
They are simillar price range now.
I don't care about 3D video but 1080p converted video.
Also I would like to get auto sound calibration function like YPAO or Audyssey since I don't know well about audio system.
But, I prefer to use this system for music than movie
My friend said that cheapest one between reasonable brand will be good for me as entry, if I don't buy expensive one. if then do I have to consider Yamaha rx v 367 too? price is really good.
Thanks for any comment.

IME the Denon 590 is a very good entry level reciever with an excellent feature set.I use the similar but older model 689 in a secondary HT setup and i'm well pleased with it.

If you're going to use if for "music" get last year's Harman Kardon AVR 254....that is IMHO more musical than anything else above. But try to give them a listen yourself?
