I second the entry-level Yamaha or Pioneer suggestion :)

Yamaha 357?? Don't see it listed on the Yamaha website. Maybe RXV359?

Anyway, I have a Yamaha RXV459 6.1 ch amp that I bought Sept last year. The idea was to put into a second room with PCHT, but I have too many other priorities at the moment. It played for about a month.

Talk to me if you're interrested.

I'm in Centurion/Pierre van Rynneveld.

Paid for it R4k, and its brand new. I think R3k should be a bargain?

Snowy, both the Yamahas suggested should do the trick for you, as long as you don't expect earthshattering performance in a large room. These are entry-levels receivers that does provide good quality at a low price, but I feel you would be better off with the RX-V459 and Norval's price is good anyway :)

What speakers do you intend using with your receiver?

well its for a small room & the input will come from pc..

The speakers used is sakayno's im not good on specs but each main speakers has 4 mids 2 tweets & one sub hence the importance of dsp the its normal surround speakers & a lg active sub Now i know if previouse amp wich was krap ran those speakers to satisfaction this amp will Definitly do the job plus more :)
