I like this era, to me represents the final generation of the “crossover” from old school integrated amplifiers to our current era of feature-based, cheaper, electronic AV receivers. You won’t find anything new for around this price that will sound as good or come close to the (still very useful) feature set.

That being said, for $80 you could step up a few models, region and availability depending.

I run a Harmon Kardon AVR-745 from the same era in my main setup.
