So I've been waiting to get into blu-ray once a good player comes out with profile 2.0 and analogue outs (since my reciever doesn't have hdmi). Then I realized that my reciever doesn't apply any bass management or other settings to the multi channel in. It looks like my only option is upgrading my reciever!
Currently I have a Pioneer VSX 1015 TX Thx Select 2 reciever powering a pair of M22's, a VP-150, and a pair of QS-4's, plus a 350 sub. My room is fairly small, no more than 2000 cubic feet.
I've been looking at recievers at my local Best Buy Magnolia store, and I'm looking at either a Denon 3808CI, a Pioneer Elite VSX-94 (or possibly the lower priced VSX-92)or possibly a Yamaha RX V3800. I'm leaning towards the Pioneers because I've been pleased with my current Pioneer, but I know that the Denon is very popular.
Any advice on how these work with regards to decoding the lossless formats as well as how they sound with the axioms?
