Here is my current setup:

Onkyo tx-sr601 receiver

2 RTi100 Polk
1 csi40 Polk
2 m30s Polk
2 valdyne vrp-1200 subwoofers

What improvements could be made on the system that would have the most impact? Budget 1500-2000 Thanks, I was thinking about upgrading my receiver.

Mark,

Believe it or not, you might not even have to spend that much...look into the $230 Panasonic sa-xr55:

A few caveats---very minor IMHO at this pricepoint: no pre-outs (would negate the whole point of a digital amp after all), subwoofer crossover only down to 80Hz, no room speaker EQ, primitive remote, no digital outputs, no OSD (onscreen display). Also may not be the best choice if you have lousy, overly bright speakers.

Just as some folks still prefer LPs to CDs and tubes to solid state, you might decide to stick with an analog receiver, I'll make no guarantees. But it's definitely worth hearing it to make up your own mind, in any case...it's a whole different animal!


Just a $15 (return shipping) gamble.
