New receiver for RTi A5

Hello
Is the Marantz SR5011 a good receiver to match with RTia5 and CSia4?
Looking at buying a new receiver, especially on Accessories4less
RTiA5 + CSiA4 + Jamo SW410E
Yamaha TSR-700 (equivalent to RX V6A)
No surround...yet

    Sounds like a good match to me.
  • A4L is selling it for $650...Is there other great choices for the same price, or even less, to match my RTiA5?
    I can see for example they are selling a Pioner Elite SC-85 for $599......How do they compare?

    The Pioneer is an older AVR, and doesn't have the newer HT formats. The 5011 is the newest version of that particular series.

    Both are solid AVR's, so depends on what you're going to use it for. Some people just don't need the latest and greatest.

    Marantz or hk is what I would suggest. Unless you want to spend more than perhaps adventage by Yamaha.... Or buy the cheapest avr that has all the inputs you need and pair it with a separate amp.
