what is a good receiver for infinity beta 50?
i just bought the infnity beta 50, but i don't know what kind of receiver is good for this speaker. Can you guys help me with that? Thank you.

I have been an audiophile for a long time but for the last 3 or 4 years I always seem to recommend Denon receivers. I sold Yamaha for quite a while but I think Denon sounds better for about the same price. Onkyo, Harmon Kardon, and Marantz are also good, but I still like Denon over all of these. Denon seems to also be a good match for speakers with a bright sound. I have not listened to the Beta 50's but the Infinity speakers I have heard in the past have been on the bright side. I think an NAD receiver would sound especially good with these speakers but I suspect they may be beyond your budget. I have provided a link to the Denon website so you can see which receiver might best meet your needs. Watts are not a top priority in selecting amplification for Infinity since all of their speakers (including these) are pretty sensitive and can be driven well without an excessive amount of power. I would make quality and features the priorities in finding a receiver for these speakers.
