I just acquires some 2.3TLs. Now I need a better receiver than my old Yamaha rx-v850 to drive 'em. I can't afford seperates right now, but will get something with Preouts for future expansion. I will be watching movies and listening to Music on this system. About $1000 is my limit. I won't mess with used stuff unless I can demo it.

Here's what I have it narrowed down to.

Harmon Kardon AVR 7300.
or
NAD T763

I am partial to NAD because they don't fudge their numbers or waste time with gimmick features. However, I can't find a dealer around Iowa City that actually stocks them. So started poking around and ran across the HK. I mostly want solid performance.

Anyone out there with experience with both NAD and HK?

Better ideas welcome.

Thanks

    I prefer NAD. I have no experience but has great reviews about this amp. Read them in the web and try to listen both with the same speakers.

    You don't need a receiver. You need an integrated...
