Zone 2 is for the deck or basement (probably interchangeable - depending on season). Lots of GREAT info. I am leaning towards the 1500. Just that it is at the top of the $$ range. But might have to bit the bullet.

Pilgram - I agree - it is a lot of $$ - just doesn,t go as far.

So - all this said - any suggestion on some speakers? As I said - no sense in taking a chance at investing in a quality receiver - just to have these Cerwin Vegas do the same thing!!

Do these things have internal fuses that might have blow'n? Or is it a complete repair by a professional. (speaking of the old receiver of coure). You know how it is - gotta justify to the wife why I "need" this new stuff.
