My setup consists of a Sony 790 receiver, Sony speakers + sub for the original 5.1 layout (all Core Series), an extra Polk T15 for the surround backs, and Polk OWM3s for the heights. I had extra speakers in case I wanted a 7.1 layout or a 5.1.2 layout. I'm looking to utilize all the speakers I have now plus two more Polk OWM3s but that's for another day.
I'm now looking to purchase a new receiver. I recently purchased an AIYIMA A07 so I could power the last two heights to get an 11-channel layout. What receiver can you recommend me that's reliable and at a good deal? I was looking at the Denons (3600-3800, 4700-4800) but they're out of my price range. I'm looking at the Onkyo RZ50 and the Integra 5.4 but I'm hearing issues on here about their reliability. And it seems I should I avoid the Pioneers at all cost.
Should I just wait for the Denon to be affordable or get the above alternatives?
