I saw a picture of the new remote that JVC supplies with the new line replacing the RX-?00's, I like the one I have much better... (it controls only the receiver, but it has almost all the functions on the remote). About half a year ago I posted my impressions from the RX-500B, if you want I can send you an e-mail copy. Another receiver I think is worth looking into is the Marantz SR-940. Very similar specs and the lowest price i saw was $299. #include ~~~ {> <} Erez Levav __ ^ __ University of Wisconsin / \ | /> ARPA: erez@rsch.wisc.edu \/ BITNET: erez%rsch.bitnet@wiscvm.wisc.edu UUCP: {allegra,harvard,ihnp4,seismo,topaz}!uwvax!erez
