Real answer, when comparing similar quality receivers (not the bare bones base models) you will find that you should be able to make the speakers sing. Of course, some people will say that Brand X is better than Brand Y. Maybe, but then there are the cost variables... Is Brand X worth the extra money over Brand Y? Does Brand Y have what I need now, but Brand X is more "future proof"?

Pretty much any of the mainstream receiver/amp companies allow enough tweaking and tuning of the sound to make them all fairly comparable.

Anyone else who says otherwise is just being a booger. :-P
