I want to update my older Yamaha AV receiver rxv3300. Built like a brick but getting outdated.
It was actually an 8.1 receiver with the front effects and a single back channel. All internally powered if you want.
I want to go with as many new surround channels as possible for movies, but still value stereo music as much.
I have a nice 5 channel external amp that I use to biamp my left/right plus power the center, plus I also have an extra stereo amp if necessary.
So I don't need the receiver to power all the channels. Multiple sub outs are a plus. I think I read some receivers now allow re-directed bass from small speakers to a seperate sub versus LFE channel to it's own dedicated sub?
Other than lots of channels, I want ability to manually tweek the speaker equalization that the newer receives all feature, and the equalization needs to include the subs. Also want the dynamic EQ
I don't think I need to have all the video up conversion and switching in the receiver as I am happy with picture quality with my current set up feeding direct to TV, but I could change my mind.
Ready for sat radio, wireless connection to my internet would be great also.
Price matters but I will pay what it takes to get something that I can keep for the next 10 years.
Thanks
