I just ordered a VP100 to go with my M22s (M2s are next up). Now I need a good receiver to power them.
I've been searching and searching for the right machine, and finally I think I've narrowed it down to two contenders: Marantz SR4300 ($279 from Accessories4less) or Yamaha RX-V995 ($297 from Ebay). Which one would you choose?
As for me, I've been leaning toward the Marantz--simply because it's from a more reliable store, it's a slightly newer model, and I've never owned anything from that company--I'd like to try 'em out. But the Yamaha has a lot more power, was a pricier model when it first came out, and I already have a Yamaha integrated amp--so I trust the company for building solid equipment.
Any suggestions?
