I am looking at picking up an Epic 50/350 as my budget only allows me to purchase this model. Would I be ok purchasing a Denon 2805 receiver for this Epic model? Can i get away w/o an amp, just the receiver alone? I live in an apartment, so my viewing area is not too large, so I imagine this setup will be more than adequate.
Also, and good sites to scout on purchasing that Denon?
Thanks in advance, and im glad to join you guys, lots of smart people here w/ good advice

2805 would be fine. Ubid is authorized reseller.

Thank you for your response.... is maybe the 2805 a lil much for these M50's? could i get away with the 2105? If it means im better off for the future, i'll go with the 2805, id rather spend a lil more now and be set down the road.

I have the 2805 with M60's EP350 VP150 and 4 Qs8's in a very large room with no problems. I got my 2805 at an American Electronics local store on a special sale day for like 20% off retail, not bad. Also, the Denon 985, if you find that one, is the same thing as the 2805.
Also, not sure if your planning on ordering from the Axiom Factory Outlet or not, but that will save you an additional 10%, and there is nothing technically wrong with them. Most of us took that route.
good luck

Here is the url for Denon's feature comparison chart.
You'll have to copy and paste because I haven't got all the usage features of this forum down yet.

2105's are available on ubid as well.

Eric, you would be fine with the 2105 or the 1905. The 2805 is not required.
Look here for a comparison of the features.
They all have comparable/ample power and the difference is in the features/price. To answer your next question - No, the EQ isn't required and has not proven to be the most accurate feature available.
Happy shopping.

Wow, thanks! You guys are great, after looking it over, i think ill go w/ the 2105. Looks like it'll save me a few bucks, plus i dont need all those inputs really, and 90w from 100w, prob won't be a big deal i imagine..... Im sure it'll all be better than the Sony i have now, w/ its itty bitty satalites, its about 4 yrs old now
Again, many thanks!
Eric
