I've been slowly cobbling together a HT setup over time, as budget and sales allow.
Currently I'm running a stereo pair of kef Q100, a svs sb12-nsd, and a pre-hdmi pioneer vsx-d810s. Sources are my TV and a Chromecast audio, both over toslink.
I'd like to add a center eventually, but I have no room for surrounds.
Unfortunately, the receiver is having some amp issues, and I need a replacement.
Before prices shot up, I was looking at the Denon x3500/3600/3700, since they could be found used for ~$550, but that seems to be gone now.
As an alternative, I was considering the minidsp ddrc-24, plus a 2 channel amp.
Any thoughts on other cost effective room correction + amp? 2.1 is my minimum for channels, but 3.2 or more would be preferred.
Thanks!
