Hi MtM


Please also consider Yamaha's superb RX-V900. It will work well with your components.They might not be around for long though so if you do decide to go for one than try not to leave it too long.

Hi Rick


I considered this amp but I can't find it for £700, I am buying this amp with the KEF's and the Bluray player but still couldn't get it within budget.


I will keep looking.....



Hi MtM


As sorreltiger has suggested spend less on the blu ray player (although i would go for the BD60 instead) and the savings on the RX-V1900 instead. This will give you a bigger return on your investment.


The RX-V1900's can be had for around £800.


Thanks

It is good to see the SR6003 getting mentioned, I would look into this model as well as the RXV1900 ( if you can still find a new one) as it matches if not exceeds the Yamaha's performance at a cheaper price point.

Hems:
is the rx-v1900 going to be replaced soon?


Hi Hems


The RX-V1900 will be replaced in due course hence why they can be had at a fair price.


Thanks


Rick @ Musicraft



I should have asked in my earlier post but what is replacing the v1900 and is there a timeframe?

cheers

Re: AV Amp - I Can Wait but.......

Was also looking for a amp recently.

After listening to quite a few amps

 

RX-V765

RX-V863

Denon 1910

Onkyo 876

I went for the Marantz SR6003. Beautiful, excellent sound and features. Only downside is 3HDMI inputs which is enough for me but not enough for others.

Hi Hems


I think the Yamaha RX-V1900 will be replaced by the RX-V2065. I have no details of when this will happen though.


Btw, MtM Yamaha AV amps are and always have been a great match for the various Kef sub/sats.


Thanks
