Now that my 1st DIY speaker project has been built, it would be
great to hear some suggestions on a budget priced AV receiver.
My current setup consists of a Van Alstine preamp and an NAD 2140
power amp. Given that I don't like extreme volume levels, will any
of the highly regarded budget AV receivers such as the Outlaw 1050
or Onkyo TX-DS595 deliver the quality I'm currently experiencing, or
is it "once separates - always separates"?
Any feedback from people that have used separates and now have an
AV receiver would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Keith.

I'm currently looking at the $300-$500 price range.
Given that I bought my current preamp and power amp 19 years ago,
I have no idea what improvements receiver amps have undergone
since then. I just know that "back in the day", receivers didn't really
cut it for people that have a passion for this stuff.
If my selected price range "cut it", which receivers should I consider,
or should I really save up and go with AV separates?
Thanks in advance,
Keith.

Here's an idea.
How about the Outlaw 1050 since it has pre-outs. Is the D/A conversion
decent where it would be worth it to by one of the "better of the low-
end" AV receivers w/pre-out, then buy power amps when ready?
Would this be a decent plan for starting "easy", but still have
satisfying music fidelity as budget allows?
