I need a cheap receiver.

Scott,

If you don't have a problem buying Manufacturer refurbished stuff check out these two places:

Dakmart and Ecost.

I have been buying refurbished stuff forever it seems. Everything from audio to printers and with the exception of one CD player (which was replaced under warranty) have never ever had any problems.

You can get excellent stuff for around half the cost - most everything comes with warranties and you can always get Square Trade extended warranties to cover them for longer periods. I have a few Square Trade coverages.

Anyway - I'm a Denon fan and have bought from both the above places. They are the only two places authorized by Denon to sell refurbished online. I prefer Dakmart a little more I guess cause I have called them and the person(s) answering always had the answers without having to transfer me. On my last receiver purchase the guy gave me the next model up for the same price as the one I was looking to buy.

Here are the pictures from the Denon website on that model.






Now - Denon sells and iPod dock that not only lets you play any iPod on it - it also has a internet connection that will let you play any music files on your home computer and/or internet radio. Looks like this:



If you think that you want one - don't buy one. For a couple of smokes you can have mine. My internet plugs directly into my receiver so I don't ever use it.

And one last thing. Although they can be programmed by using the front panel - it's a ton easier to setup if you can connect a small (or large) TV to it and use the on-screen menu.
