Let's face it, you can't name every brand under the sun, after all this is just for fun anyways . . .

with that said of the brands listed I'd have to go with Yamaha. :bigok:
 
Yamaha,Parasound,Carver,Soundcraftsmen,SAE,................... Did I mention yamaha ?:biggrin:
 
Amazing how many folks are crying that their brand is not on this extremely truncated list.
 
What, no Soundesign or Yorx?!?!

I've been a Pioneer man since I was old enough to put my own records on the spinner device thingy, my older brother had Pioneer, all his friends had Pioneer, everything in my area was Pioneer. I have NUMEROUS Pioneer SX receivers, I love them all, but...
My wife picked me up a Sansui 8080DB at a yard sale for four bucks a couple of summers ago. It needed a little work, but once it has been back in running condition it has now completely displaced every other receiver I own, even my beloved SX-1010. That is a hard reality for me, but the ears don't lie, it just sounds better than everything else I own, and I own some good gear.
I have only now just decided to sell of most of everything else and get myself another top-o-de-line Sansui, I'm not sure which one yet, maybe seperates, but I think I've outgrown the Pioneer sound.

No crying here, it's just that the one brand that introduced me to hi-fi isn't on the list, so I can't vote :)

Well you can vote for three so save that vote for your turn-on brand and use those other two to sway the voting your way.
