The AV40 sounds decent.... Struggling to find any reviews of it though!

Also, if I were to get the AT6005, wouldnt I need a separate processor for the AV sound/HDMI and stuff? Whats a good one of those? Do ATI make one themselves that matches well??? Thanks, Dudley.

Interested in the AT6005....but it looks like it needs a separate processor or something? So..... Can someone either?: 1) Recommend a one box solution like the AT6005? 2) Recommend a processor to matchup with the AT6005, Thanks, Dudley.

Current AV Receiver is: Yamaha RX-V781 (it has pre-outs, but itsn't a great quality bit of kit tbh. Various ground loop issues and noise sometimes...)

THANKS!!! This is the kind of suggestions I want! Although, practicality demands that I would ideally much better have one ring to rule them all; in the form of an AVR that is PROPER audiophile grade for the 2 channel stereo hifi as well!

Please don’t derail my thread! It is not a matter of money, it is a matter of practicality. I want to know what the best avrs are for music in stereo please! Thank you! :)

I want to upgrade my AVR to enable me to use it alone for both movies and music. Right now I have a Yamaha RX-V with pre-outs connected to arcam alpha 10/10p and monitor audio silver 9i speakers. I am upgrading my speakers to B&W 802d or 803d. I've been told that my Arcam 10/10p pair isnt quite...

I thought I would reply to this thread as I found it when searching for info on removing the DAVE module. I have just spoken to a technician at Arcam HQ and he reliably informed me that I can just remove the DAVE module. No reprogramming is needed as the circuitry is auto sensing. So no need to...
