mullineux1 Posted April 29, 2021 Posted April 29, 2021 Hi guys and gals, New member here as I have been recommended to join by a friend who's a DJ. I am looking to upgrade our AV receiver for our home theatre and am looking at something under $500 that's great quality and reliable. Anyone got any ideas on what to look for? 1

Hi Rob, Welcome to Stereo Net! I can't help you with with the AV receiver, but I like the photo of your woofer. In our house, we prefer stereo... Or, occasionally, quadraphonic... 4 3
MIKE.D79 Posted April 30, 2021 Posted April 30, 2021 welcome mate not that clued up about AV receivers but to help narrow it down, how many channels do you need/want and what sort of features are you after and are you looking to expand on it later? more channels etc. Is there something specific about your current receiver that your not happy with? Lacking power to drive current speakers, missing something like bluetooth/airplay etc. or is it just at the end of its life? At $500.00 I'd be thinking you need to look at the used market place if that's an option but Im sure someone with more experience will be along shortly. 1
Snoopy8 Posted April 30, 2021 Posted April 30, 2021 the forum.. In addition to the questions asked by @MIKE.D79, please provide more details of your current HT setup including size of room, details of your AVR, speakers including sub. Any music listening and if so, how much? Suggest a used AVR, Classifieds will be available after a few more posts.. 1
Bill125812 Posted May 2, 2021 Posted May 2, 2021 This looks like a bit of a bargain https://www.selby.com.au/brands/yamaha/yamaha-rx-v385-5-1-ch-receiver-black-rxv385b.html 1
