Brady, fairly long time no-see; welcome back! The 1912 is a typically excellent modern HT receiver, and it depends largely on what specific features you want. If you're looking in the $500 area I'd suggest that you consider a factory refurbished unit, especially one of the Denons available from eCost or Dakmart or an Onkyo from Accessories4less or Shop Onkyo. These should be at least as reliable as brand new units and money can be saved or a model a step or two up can be had for about the same money. For example, I just took a quick look and see that Dakmart has the 1912 for about $390.

Tell us a bit more about what you're looking for and I'll make a more specific suggestion.
