I made the mistake of buying a cheap Sony home theater in a box ($ 179), because it was a system second for use in the basement. The receiver is so weak that even though I updated the speaker wires (Big Monster XP CL 100, and the longest runway is approximately 20 feet) whenever you try to get any volume at all, the receiver passes by way of protection, and closes. The speakers are 6 OHM, receiver is rated at 100 watts per channel. So I know I need a new receiver. The recommendations in the range of $ 300 - $ 400? All comments are appreciated.

If you want better performance will have to replace the first speakers with something that is more sensitive. There are three classifications for speakers can be seen that really matter. 1) impedance is usually expressed in ohms Most receivers are designed for 8 ohms. 2) watts, this is the absolute maximum you ever want to connect speakers and should ensure that the speakers have a power equal to or higher than the receiver. 3) the sensitivity of this is expressed in dB should be noted that a speaker only 3 dB greater than another, will be twice as strong than 3 dB more than twice as high, etc ... Sony speakers are probably nominal 83-86dB auditions try a speaker that has better sensitivity and will double the sound level (test Klipsch). I agree that you need to replace the receiver, but will need to replace the first speakers to achieve a significant change as it coincides with the receiver to the new speakers. The receiver is much easier to match a set of speakers then to versa. Denon is a great game for klipsh. I also expect to buy a receiver until the HDMI blue ray HD DVD war is over to get a receiver that could be brief change in functionality, if you have one right now.
