New member Username: PetercPost Number: 2 Registered: Dec-04 | 2 Channel music? Home theater? Polk speakers. I'm trying to find a balance here between music and HT needs. If I had to lean one way or the other - it would be HT winning out. I know that everyone has different tastes in sound, but knowledgable opinions are valuable to me. I've been listening to a Denon AVR2800 since it was introduced way back when. Anyway, thanks in advance for your input. My decision time is this week. |

Tough choice between two very good receivers. I of course like the Elite's best but sonically they are so close you can't go wrong either way. |
