Hi Shag --

If you haven't bought yet, I'll second JohnK's suggestion of Accessories 4 less' refurb shop.

I picked up a Marantz SR7008 there in the ballpark of $700 and am loving it. It is powering a 9 speaker Axiom setup beautifully, with vicious dynamics, including the 4Ohm m80/vp180 center trio. The unit was absolutely indistinguishable from new stock.

Here is their receiver lineup, with the Marantz 7008 at $680. for $170 you can step up to the 7009, with Atmos.
