Need help in deciding which receiver to buy...

soundfoobar

Thanks,

I have the TSI200's (nothing else) and looking to buy a receiver,
know nothing about audio...

I am looking for opin/advice for a simple receiver.
i have narrowed it down to 3:

Sony STRDH820 7.2 - http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004QOA920/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&m=ATVPDKIKX0DER

or

Denon AVR-1312 5.1 - http://www.amazon.com/Denon-AVR-1312-Channel-Theater-Receiver/dp/B004U403S6/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top

or

Yamaha RX-V471BL 5.1 - http://www.amazon.com/Yamaha-RX-V471BL-5-1-Channel-AV-Receiver/dp/B004QR56R0/ref=pd_sxp_f_pt


all i have are the lg 47LW6500 3d tv, a ps3, and a hdmi tv box.
was leaning more towards the yamaha...
thanks for the help

I've been a Denon fan for many years and used it to drive a Polk setup (RTi150, CS350LS, LSf/x) I recently upgraded to the 4311ci, and have enjoyed it. That being said, the Yamaha you are looking at has a number of nice features. In my experience, Yamaha tended to be a little bright while the Denon was a little smoother overall. I buy video products from Sony, but would not buy a receiver from them.

Just my opinions. Good luck.

I personally have Pioneer's VSX-1121-k because I wanted airplay for my iPod, macbook, etc.

So if you have an iPod or a mac and you want to play music wirelessly check out Pioneer's VSX-1021-k models and above. They're great receivers with plenty of power and the video upscaling is great on them too!

Good luck on your purchase!

Have you considered Onkyo 609 ?

I am a huge Denon fan as well.
