I needs me a new AVR

However, dropping 14K for this dream team is something I just can't justify to myself right now.

I think Iggy and Pirate make some good comments in that thread about dimishing returns. This is probably especially true for me, as I don't have the B&W 802D's that I intend to eventually hook this Receiver/Separates/Whatever into yet.

But, I do have BRD discs that need to be played, and I want to hear them with the new HD formats such as DTS-HD MA, etc. so I can't really wait too much longer. (The Bladrunner discs are calling to me at night... )

I think my price range is more in the $5K-$7K area, for processor and amps. And i'm liking the idea of separates more and more. I know some of you folks are more read up on this stuff than I am, so what's the buzz on what's best out there right now?
