Help, need a good receiver.

[Twistedsix]

Ok heres the facts. I am looking for a kind of jack of all trades receiver for the time being. It will primarily be used with 2ch audio, but I will occasionally run movies or even the xbox through her.

I will be ordering the following for my 5.1 setup
Speakers
Focal Chorus 807v Bookshelf speakers
Focal Chorus CC 800v Center Channel
Focal Chorus SW 800v Subwoofer
Focal Little Bird surround speakers

Audio clarity is the priority but I am looking to keep the receiver price around $1500 or so to get started. Thanks.

Used Integra DHC-series processor and used amplifier from any of the dozens of great amp manufacturers out there.

If it has to be warrantied, then you'll be hard pressed to do better than this: http://www.accessories4less.com/make...working/1.html
