    as xcapri79 mentioned, the VSX-1120k can do 5.1 and 7.2, has pre-outs, is available for ~$550, and has 3d support.

    All you do is connect the pre-outs for the FR, C, FL to the 3 inputs on the amp with good rca stereo cables. You can let the Pioneer power the surrounds.

    You should be good to go.

    The Pioneer VSX-1120? It's a 7.1 receiver, so it'll do 5.1. Just ignore the rear surrounds if you don't have 'em. In fact here is a link to the manual for the receiver so you're prepared:

    When your just walking into audio/video and setting it all up, it will get you every time. It happened to me when I was building the theater room, and going front projection for the 1st time.

    He'll slow down and figure it out I goofed several months ago when the crappy distributor let me walk out with the LSi and 1020 in May cause it was a new line for them. Brought the gear home Friday got with CP and was shopping again Monday. Lesson learned....slow down

    I was kidding - I totally understand the excitement - esp when you're doing it all at once.
