Pioneer Elite SC-05 Receiver Thread

[cbo]

I had the same dilemma last week and had to choose between the SC-05 & Marantz SR6003. After reading countless reviews & auditioning both, the SR6003 was the clear cut winner for my listening & viewing needs. As many have pointed out you really can't lose with either & it comes down to your personal preferences & what you need out of the receiver. A couple words of caution, as with the Marantz (industry best 3 year warranty ), be sure that if you do decide on the SC-05 that it is from an authorized dealer so in the event you have a problem it will be covered under the 2 year Pio warranty.

Good luck!
