Audio Components (buy, live, price)

[ted08721]

Ok I need a new A/V receiver, if I was back in Jersey I would know where to go look to get one at a decent price, looking for a warm sounding midrange receiver.
Does anyone have a good place in NOVA or outside of Nova.
Also does anyone have any a/v receiver recommendations?

There is a very well informed community for mid-fi components at Club Polk:

Most likely you will get better price if you buy from internet (reputable etailer that doesn't sell gray market goods, of course).

Haven't kept up with AVRs, but I think you may want to research Marantz, Yamaha, Harman Kardon, and possibly Denon. I am not sure if I would call NAD warm, but they also make good stuff.

Thanks for the reply, I did ordered this morning on internet got a good price on a Denon AVR3311CI with a coupn code from Electronic Expo online, for $822 including delivery this unit goes for $1198. at most other sites.
Most authorized sites have the same list price.
In the past I have found good deals equal if not better than internet pricing in some of the smaller stores, I learned early on that it is BS when a store tells you an item is fairtraded among authorized dealers and I won't be able to find a lower price from an authorized dealer.
