Hi there... I'll be buying one of these receivers this weekend and I need some help!
These are the prices (with tax included) I can get:
Rotel 1056 - $1264
Denon 3805 $1100
Marantz 7500 $1025
I'll be listening to all three of them.. but in separate stores so that's not gonna help much: different rooms, speakers...
So mainly I'm concerned with the features. I don't need absolutely all the bells and whistles, but I do like them! ;)
Soundwise, build quality.... any comments???
My speakers will be Quads 22L on the front and either the 12L or the 11L on the back. My room is not too big, and I tend to like low volumes often... Finally, I'll be using it 50-50 music-movies.
Any advice will be much appreciated!!
Thanks!!!

I have the Marantz SR7500 matched with Klipsch Reference series speakers. So far I love it. It sounds great with music and movies. The dealer let me have it for $940.00. Also, Tweeter has the Denon 3805 for $1019.00 through the end of January. I was considering that one as well. I am not sure about the Rotel.
The Rotel 1056 has the cleanest sound of the bunch. However, the feature set is minimal. The Marantz would be my second choice, especially with your speakers. I would not match Denon with Klipsch in most cases.
