I feel the itch. I think the upgrade bug has bitten again. As I continue, you will see it has been awhile.
My current system is:
Denon AVR-3801 Receiver (7.1, 105wpc)
DM605 S2 Mains
DM602 S2 Surrounds
DM601 S2 Rear Surrounds
CC6 S2 Center.
ASW 1000 Sub
I am thinking about replacing my receiver. The features I would like to upgrade are:
1. HDMI switching.
2. Newer format decoding
3. Auto tuning for speaker setup.
4. Possibility of cleaner, more impactful sound.
5. Possibility of internet radio or wireless from home network.
I have looked at some of the new Denon receivers and glanced at the Rotel sites. I would like to stay wtih 7.1 format. I don't anticipate ever going 3D. I have room on my rack to go separates if warranted. Looking mostly for a noticible improvement in sound quality.
Any suggestions that might help me narrow selections? There sure is a lot of stuff out there! Also don't want to buy something that grossly outclasses the speakers. What about getting a processor/pre amp like RSP-1572 and using the Denon power amp section?
Thanks.
