Looking for a receiver to set up a lil home system. I know jack crap about home audio. Looking for something cheap yet does decent power. I cant see needing more then a 4 channel receiver. Any direction would be much appreciated....

The best bang for your buck IMO will be a Yamaha. Preferable the Aventage line. What is your budget ?

All way out of my price line.... Cheapest would be the a720 and that's close to 400-500 bucks.. I am looking for much lower in price.

I got mine off Craigslist. I set up an entire 5.1 surround system for around 260 (not including subwoofer, which I bought new). I got an older Harmon Kardon for 80 bucks that does 80 a channel. Pawn shops are also cheap for home audio. You should be able to get something decent for around 80-120 bucks. It's like anything else, do a little research before you buy and you'll be good.

They are all good choices. Home audio is a bit more stable than car audio. Most brands that put the time into make a unit tend to build them decently. I personally have the Denon AVR1513. Good unit and easy to use. The speakers are just are important as the reciever thou.
