Choosing a used AVR

I am looking hard at three AVRs unless I can put together afforable separates as I try to swap out some pieces.

NAD 773 110 watts all channels
B&K 307/317 (some upgraded hybrid) 140 watts all channels
Rotel RSX 1055 75 watts all channels

The prices on the first two are about the same....the price on the Rotel is about $100+ less (makes sense).

I've had/have all of these brands...Rotel in separates, NAD in separates and an integrated and a B&K AVR 202.

Anyone with more 1st hand experience with any of these. Thanks.

    Have you considered Arcam? The Avr 300 is going on the Gon right now for $575. I had one for 3 years and it was a stellar performer.

    Since I couldn't move my Denon 5800, I decided to swap receivers with a friend for a change of pace. I am stuck in such a rut of Denon, Rotel, NAD and B&K, I need to branch out more....as soon as the inheritance check comes in.

    That wouldn't be such a bad rut to be in for some of us. ;):)
