I already set the 607 in there... it is tight. I have come to the conclusion that it is not fiesable to put the reciever in the shelving so I will just put it on the counter. the 607 is not mine... just borrowed it from work to see if it would fit. I have a 906 for my upstairs system.

If this counter has open space above it, that would be the logical place for any type of amplifying equipment.

yeah it does... just doesnt look as nice I guess but I can live with it. I may just do the 876 considering it is pretty much the same amp with slightly less power. Hopefully the onkyo rep will have a good deal for me.

Maybe this is a dumb answer but did you ever consider a used Panasonic Receiver?
If you are considering a 906 a Panny is decidedly low end, but it is a digital amp that doesn't put out much heat and it is cool running. I stuffed one of these below my dresser and it runs great.
You do miss all the new features of the new receivers so it is just a suggestion.

So here it is... I am just about to order the epic grand master 500 and I have decided on the avr3550hd Harmon Kardon amp. JC felt that it would have better sound than onkyo offerings. I just have one more quick question... Is the light maple close to white. My girlfriend has bought my sales pitch of these over the orbs but wants to make sure they speakers will match... lol

Steve, what matters isn't what's "felt", but the reality that modern receivers operated within their designed limits amplify transparently and none have better sound. Consider units such as the Onkyo 876 or Denon 4310 for an up-to-date performer.
Congratulations on the Epic Grand Master 500, which certainly will allow you to enjoy great sound down there.
Edit: okay, I deleted my comment about the old 3550, since you're considering the new one. The features available should be considered, including Audyssey MultEQ XT on several Denon and Onkyo models. Enjoy.

Actually the HK3550hd is harman kardons flagship amp right now until the 7550hd comes out this winter. I would wait for the 7550 but need something sooner. I was already considering the 876 with these but the "Axiom Audio Expert" thought the Harman Kardon would sound better.
