I am looking to purchase a new AV Receiver but i can not decide which one, after reading up for hours on end i am even more undecided than i was when i started.
I have Wharfedale 8 speakers and the choices are between the
Onkyo 508, which has all the features but does not upscale to 1080p and i heard that there was several problems with the build quality and it does not look that great.
Pioneer vsx-520, has all the features but apparently does not have a lot of power, which i thought was surprising. But looks great and good build quality. no upscale.
Yamaha rxv467, looks great but does not have upscale to 1080p apparently has a good power and build quality
Sony STRDA2400ES, has upscale to 1080p and is 7.1, i heard some bad comments on sony's sound quality and build quality and the receiver does not look that great, it is also a bit more expensive. But the fact that it upscales for the price is pretty good.
Any opinions that can help me decide based on your experience with the different makes.
I am leaning towards the Pioneer or the Yamaha. But i don't know.
