WOW! ...but I guess not that surprising. THANKS, all. Good, consistent input. Given its condition and its past performance, I took an "educated guess" a couple days ago and placed it at $490 (as I recall), which apparently is a little on the high side.
In looking around for an upgrade, and focused on sound quality and a good room equalization system, it looks to me like the current 500- and 700 series Anthem units look really good. (I am a two-channel guy but have a separate stereo system located in another room). I currently have an OPPO 83 deck for Blu Ray playback. Given all that, can you offer any recommendations/opinions?
