    Or you could explain the mistake to Harman. For the price you paid, it's a good deal and would be great for an efficient sub/sat set... but floorstanding Polks?

    Still, if you've already paid for it there's no harm in plugging it in and checking it out. Let your ears decide.
    Currently listening to:

    Marantz SR5004
    Sony BDP-S370
    Apple TV V2
    Audio Technica AT-LP120
    Mirage CMD-5 x 5
    Bic H-100

    Yes dumb me left him with my card too. So, its probably in the mail right now. I guess I might give it a whirl. It is better than running to my buddy's house to listen to my speakers I guess. I did some reading on it after I found out I had one comeing in the mail. People seem to like but its seems like they didn't expect much out of it

    very scared of the 30 watts per channel

    Contact the seller over ebay and explain the problem. See if you can stop shipment and apply to another purchase. You might be surprised at what kind of deal they give you.

    I just got an Onkyo TX-SR606 off Amazon for around $400. It's a little over your budget but it's worth it. It's a 7.1ch receiver with onboard decoding for just about every HD audio format, has 4 HDMI inputs and upscales all analog inputs to 720P/1080i(the upscaling is actually pretty good) And it has 90 watts per channel. It's a great receiver for the money.
