I’ve built a pretty decent quad setup around a Yamaha AV receiver that has a 5.1 input in the back. So far I’ve got an Akai 1730D SS and an Akai CR-80D SS which covers the tape formats, and an Oppo DV-981HD which covers SACDs and DVD-As. But now I’m looking to enter the world of quadraphonic vinyl which would lead me to believe I’m gonna need a receiver.
I COULD just get decoders BUT my receiver right now only has one 5.1 input and I’ve got an elaborate setup of switch boxes and rat nests of wires that’s beginning to make my head spin. Finally getting a receiver with multiple 4.0 inputs would be a blessing.
After doing some research I’ve come to the conclusion that a sansui would be my best bet. But I’ve also fallen in love with the looks and features of the Akai AS series (AND my setup IS mostly Akai).
BUT what I’m getting at is I’m really just looking to get my first quadraphonic receiver. Preferably something that has support for both matrixes and CD-4. I don’t have a huge budget as I’m only 17 but I’m looking to spend up to $300 and maybe more If I know the unit’s gonna last a little while without dying on me.
I’m located in central Ohio, shoot me a PM if you’ve got something that’ll work.
