Denon 1804 vs. HK 225 with Klipsch KSBs

Archived from groups: rec.audio.high-end (More info?)

Hi all,

I have a surround speaker system consisting of 4 Klipsch KSB 2.1
(Fronts and Surround) and a KSC-C1 center. I'm considering getting
either a Harmon Kardon AVR-225 or a Denon AVR-1804. Does anyone have
thoughts on this?

Any advice is much appreciated. I've used the HK AVR-20II for many
years with a single pair of KSB 2.1, and liked the sound, but now its
time to try a larger set-up. I will use the system in a medium sized
room, so my primary concern is quality of sound... Any insight?

Many many thanks.
