Comparativa receptores av 1.500 - 2000 €

Hola a todos.
Tengo este presupuesto para comprar un receptor. Después de mucho buscar al fin he encontrado una comparativa en un foro que hace referencia al suplemento AVTech de la revista Hi-Fi News. Os lo paso por si puede interesar a alguien:

HiFi News' AV Tech supplement www.hifinews.co.uk has done it again. After a thorough and informative comparative review of subs there is an excellent comparison of £1,000 receivers (although the graphs are not as useful as they were for the subs).

The findings are revealing:

- Arcam AVR300: "composed performance, but not quite in the top drawer"

- *Denon AVR-3805: "may not have the raw power of the Pioneer, it seems capable of building a more realistic sense of atmosphere" , "dialogue most intelligible of the bunch"

- Harman Kardon AVR 630: "not as 'hazy-sounding' as the Yamaha but for all its extra freshness, there's very little richness, body and weight to carry the performance aloft. It's a light salad in a steak restaurant."

- *Pioneer VSX-AX5i "The extra power and grip is immediately apparent ... some suggesation of dryness at the very top (with cymbals in particular) ... sounds impressive"

- *Rotel RSX-1056: "If you are looking to be transported to the heart of the action, then the RSX-1056 will get you closer than any amplifier at this price. ... bags of headroom, conveying subtle detail, while handling the greatest of impacts ... Confident ... rip-roaring sound"

- Yamaha RX-V2400RDS: "In multi-channel by-pass mode ... The overall demeanour of the amp is pretty laid back ... there's a softness about its overall balance ... [but it] doesn't sound compressed, muted or lacking in atmosphere. It's digital inputs were a different matter ... slightly lumpy, one-note bass .. amp is a little short of fireworks if still capable of building a good sense of tension and excitement. Choose speakers with care, because it's a party animal only for the gin, tonic and cocktail sausage set."

* = AVTech commendation

"The RSX-1056 is our choice for bomb-proof 5.1 performance. Our best buy award ... AVR-3805 ... has more more than a hint of the Arcam's weighty bass, neatly tied-down by the sort of control exercised by the Pioneer."

Y eso es todo. Esta revista no está disponible en Mallorca. Si alguna alma caritativa tiene este número y puede escanear o conseguir de alguna forma el test completo le estaría eternamente agradecido. Estoy en wildsurf@ono.com
