Need a home cinema amp

[admin_exported]

Im prolly not going to use it for any sort of surround sound though.

What i need:

1. It should be budget ie on the cheaper end.

2. a minimum of 4 hdmi inputs.

3. decent stereo. I wont hook up more than 2 speakers and maybe a center speaker if there is such a thing as a 3.0 program on these gadgets. Is there?

4. It wont hurt if it looks ok. It has to have a high WAF

Any hints? Im not in a real hurry so if there are any new amps that are on their way to the shelves i can wait for them.

Joe, I've always found Onkyo and Yamaha amps very good if you want an AV amp with a more musical slant compared to ones which are mainly geared for Home Cinema use.

Musicality has always been my priority and I havent been disappointed with my Onkyo/MA BR2 combination. the MA BR Centre speaker is superb (albeit a bit of a monster!) and really comes into its own when just watching normal tv shows where you dont need (or want) the sound pinging around the room.
