Current Yamaha AV receiver is dead - it was about £300 4 years ago.

So looking for a replacement to do 7.1 and also sound OK with music (CD, vinyl), built in phono stage desirable. HDMI switching required. Budget up to £700 - but which one?

ONKYO TXNR808 seems to get good reviews - don't think it has phone stage
YAMAHA RXV1067 does as well

What say PH?

cheers

Don't go wasting electrons there Der! wink

Does it have phono stage (I assume so as it's older but smaller brother I currently have does).

Yes it does have a phono input so it's the one to go for.
