So,
I decided, after the gentleman who's been repairing my 6 channel NAD for the last few months reassured me he had no idea what was wrong with my receiver, to buy a better back-up then the 2 channel Onkyo I was using. I grabbed up a decent Marantz 90x6.
The repairman just called.
I didn't recognize the number so I didn't answer, but the message went on to tell me he narrowed down the issue and ordered the parts. Now I have a repair bill to look forward to
Anyone want a minty Marantz sr5200 HT receiver?
