Wanted: Home Audio Amp/Receiver

I'm in need of a nice amp/receiver for a home audio project im working on, I'm not super picky on brands or if its a 5.1, 7.1 etc. I just need something that puts out a amplified signal.

Price: To be discussed...I also have some things I would trade if interested (1 pioneer 6.5, 3 pioneer 6x9's which are all new...and a old school Swiss audio 2.5" coil motor)

Time: Asap

Thanks!

Harman Kardon AVR55...totl 5.1 receiver for its time. Has preouts for every channel which is awesome. I need one with HDMI and component input/output, that's why I'm selling it. It's in 9/10 condition. Sounds amazing. Don't be scared of its rated 55wpc, it's a fat lie haha //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif Shoot me an offer...

I've got a less than 1 year old Yamaha RX-V1900 that has HDMI plus video upconversion, 130x7 RMS, preouts for everything plus bi-amp capability & 3 zones etc... I'd take $900 or so for it. It was $1300 when I bought it & I have all paperwork for it. It was only just recently discontinued so you can still get parts/ accessories for it if you needed to.

Yeah that is way more than I want to pay lol thanks tho

No problem. No offense but after researching A LOT when I bought the Yamaha... you're kinda dreaming lol. In order to get anything with HDMI inputs & outputs with any kind of power at all you're not gonna get it cheap. And tbh unless you're really worried about upconverting an older DVD player or VCR, you're almost better off not worrying about HDMI on the receiver. Most of the die hard home theater guys will tell you running the HDMI directly to the tv for the video has a better picture & a lot of the lower priced receivers that do have HDMI either alter the picture badly or are unreliable. Just the info I picked up from all my research.

If you decide on changing your mind & want real cheap, I've got a couple of 5.1 Onkyos (that were higher end in their day) I'd give you for shipping cost that need minor repair if you wanted to get either fixed.
