I know that at a given price level, a stereo amplifier will perform better than an AV receiver at the same price, but what sort of difference is there in performance?
For example, the Cambridge Audio 340R/540R are supposed to have very good music performance for £200, but what sort of stereo amp would it perform similarly to?
How about:
AV receivers such as Yamaha RXV363, Pioneer VSX917V, Onkyo TXSR505, Denon AVR1907/1508 or Sony STRDG510
Or Stereo amps such as Marantz PM4001, Cambridge Audio 340A, NAD C315BEE, or Denon PMA-500AE?
Thanks in advance for any responses, at the moment I am just researching on what direction I could go to upgrade from my Panasonic mini system for music, TV, films and gaming (roughly split about 50/20/20/10).
