If the general stack of AVR companies are mediocre at best, what does the best represent? What are the price ranges, features and specs? This is not an area I know very much about.
There are the one-box AVR products that you can find in any electronics retailers. There are upscale versions of that (some examples below), and then custom integration products that aren't so much AVRs as commercial/professional audio processing hardware which can control a very large number of channels and other downstream gear. I'm not sure if the latter even belong here, like the Trinnov Ovation2.
Having never really done it before, I looked into the flagship and TOTL products. It seems like @amirm has covered a lot of ground already.
