i know ive aksed a similar quaestion elsewhere, but now im staying on the receiver side of the question i thought id start a new thread.
i have an old yamaha rxv1000, which is still i think a very good piece of kit, but it has no hdmi sockets due to its age. i have been using it with 5 monster 3 way wharfdale linton 3xp's, which i replaced the tweaters on with some audax ones from maplins. the result i thought sounded cool. anyway ive now been told the lintons have to go, to be replaced by some more compact units that if my 4 years old pulls over wont injure him.
so should i keep the yamaha for now and buy some good speakers. or replace the whole lot with a package of receiver and speakers.
ive looked at the onkyo avx690 package on richer sounds that was recomended, but the speakers seem very small and dont even have tweaters, like the onkyo system i almost bought.
then i looked at the HT-S9405THX . wondering if i can get it past the missus, hmmm .
anyway back to reality, im now well and truly confused.
can someone please help me at least narrow my options. e.g keep yamaha for the time being and if so what speakers to get, or start with a package.
