THANKS!!!

Yeah - the receiver going was a shock! I actually was RIGHT after I adjust the rear level higher - It POPPED!! It still "clicks" like it is going on - and a couple of the lights come on - but the main display and everything else is dead! Are there internal fuses?

Anyway - That Yamaha looks GREAT! So the Onkyo is NOT the way to go then I guess. Is there another Yamaha or close to compareable - that is maybe the next step down? If so, what am I losing?

Since these speakers might be my trouble - I'd hate to ruin another receiver! Perhaps I should just take the step now. Any suggestions on a good bang for the buck?

Thanks again!
