I will be purchasing the Axiom Epic 80 package minus the EP350 subwoofer (I'm buying the SVS PB1 instead - sorry Axiom). I am trying to find the right receiver for this setup and have narrowed the choices down to three: Denon 4803R, Harman Kardon 7200, or Marantz 8300 (or 7300ose if I can't find a cheap 8300). My problem is two fold: There is no one dealer here that carries all three of these receivers so I can't do a side-by-side, and (obviously) I can't demo them with Axiom speakers. I would appreciate anyone who has experience with any of these three chiming in. If you have or once had one of these all the better. Thanks for your help. I'll probably be displaying my ignorance in future postings once I get all my stuff purchased.
