Well if noone else is going to respond, I will suggest the Panasonic
XR-57. I have the 55, and for $300 it sounds great with the SB digital
input.

I picked up the Harman Kardon 3480 a few months ago after my 12-year-old
JVC died. Basic good sounding 2-channel receiver. Just don't use the
"VMAx" fake surround feature, which is horrible.
I recall that the price at J&R can vary almost daily. Currently $265
shipped.

I've had good experiences with Onkyo equipment in the $200-300 range.

Thanks for the replies...there had been deafening silence for a while
and I was beginning to wonder where everyone went ;)
I'd been looking somewhat at the Panasonic line, but they are so bloody
fixated on home theater. I'm kind of old school when it comes to
listening to music...2 speakers por f
Old faithful NAD's 'C720BEE' (http://tinyurl.com/kkj24) stereo receiver,
with 2 separate audio zones, is another candidate.

Back when I listened to the radio Sony had a good rep for tuners. I
still have one of their digital models floating around in a box
somewhere, it was pretty good and decently priced.

You can't lose with the Linn Classik. Includes a tuner, CD player,
switched mode power supply, all that in a nice little shoebox package,
and that Linn sound will not play second fiddle to most receivers.

A low-end or used NAD receiver will work well. They have excellent
tuners and plenty of power to drive 2 sets of speakers. Even the ones
rated at 25-watts actually have a great deal of power for real-world
applications. An NAD will generally sound better than a cheap
mass-market receiver.

Lot's of folks love the Panny digital receivers for two-channel setups.
