Denon or Marantz? Home theater beginner.

Of those you mention, my favorite is Marantz, the 7200 has amplifiers that sound great and the receivers are also usually good. Denon and Onkyo is not bad, you try to compare their performance, features, watts to locate one suited to your needs more.

onkyo. sound quality is equal or better then denon/marantz plus onkyo service is much, much better.

I have had a Denon for 10 years and used it on a daily basis. Flawless, high quality build. I strongely recommend it for its quality

Thanks everyone.

More info for everyone:
My budget is around $2000 for speakers and then $500-$1K for receiver.

My room is 18ftx15ft with cathedral ceiling that's about 18-20ft high.

What Def Tech's are the ones to buy?

I really like the Denon 3310 for the price and options. If I go with the Paradigm's, Paradigm recommend to match it with the Denon 3310. Now the dealer with the B&W's told me to match it with an Intega or Onkyo.

I think im going to lean towards B&W, seems everyone is recommending them because of the smooth and warm sound they produce. The only thing holding me back is Paradigms price point being at better.

Thanks again to everyone.

Also, what Intega/Onkyo would you recommend around $900?
