Help choosing a stereo receiver...
Mon, Dec 3 2007, 10:17PM
I'm considering buying a traditional stereo receiver for my Father for Christmas. I'll probably get my brother to chip in for it. I need something that has a built-in amplifier/AM-FM radio and that you can hook up to a CD player, cassette player, turntable and (important) the TV and/or DVD player for a "home theater" thing. I'd also like something that's compatible with wireless speakers.
It's been a while since I bought any serious stereo equipment. Any recommendations?
I'm not looking for something "top of the line". I just want something well-made, that's reasonably priced. Maybe <$200(US)
Thanks!

I saw a couple Philips ones at Sams Club. Also some Sonys, Panasonics and such. The ones below 200 bucks, they'll do all but hooking up all other devices may be. If go a lil up, may be 250-300 you could get what you are after. There are a few Sonys out there who do things like that. Visit Walmart, Circuit City or Sams Club, you'll get some choices.
I also rememebr seeing something from Onkyo at Radio Shack. 200 bucks for a 5.1 system and it did all you are asking for.
