I try to do searches before starting new posts, and even though it was from 2002, I figured why not!
I think that my Dad will absolutely love these speakers, and I will feel good about giving it to him, as an Axiom HT system is out of my budget for gifts, and I know that these Polks are not the best, but, I cannot imagine any HT in a box sounding better than these!
Any suggestions on a good value in a A/V receiver? I have the Pioneer VSX 1014 and like it, but wondering if there are any better (ie cheaper!) values out there. I have 6 months to shop, so I am not in a hurry!

I've seen some really low prices on some HK receivers lately. Do some google searching and you'll likely find some good deals. I think there's some new models on the way so it's a case of out with the old, in with the new. Always a good time to find a deal when that happens.

Check out your nearest Compusa. The one in fresno has the hk 230 on clearance for $299.00.
Very good receiver in my opinion.

In addition to spiff's comments on the HK receivers, the local Sunday ad for CompUSA indicates that they are trying to clear out their stock of HK receivers. Very nice prices. I imagine the available stock will vary by location.

Budd, if you're asking about an inexpensive receiver to give to your father along with the speakers, here's a bargain on a receiver that tested well in Sound&Vision .
