Default new polk speakers but i need a reciver

This is the list of speakers i plan on getting from Amazon

Polk tsi300 2 fronts
Cs10 center
tsi100 2 rear speakers
Psw10 sub

But I want a receiver to go with them but don’t know what to get. My total for the speakers is a little over $800 I am willing to spend about $2000 with receiver but I will have to add 2 speakers and a sub if the receiver is 7.2 will take any and all advice. Thanks for all the help.

you do not have to add 2 additional speaker, you can run 5.1 on any 7.1 receiver and same for sub, you can run a single sub on a .2 receiver or multiple subs on a .1 receiver.

I would suggest that if you can take the CS10 back and get the CS20, you will like it better. Trust me, everyone with a CS10 or CS1 wishes they have the CS20 or CS2. Also, if you can take the Sub back and look at the Premier Acoustic PA-120, it will be a much better sub then the on you got. Not tring to put down what you got, just help you to have a better overall system you will love for a long time.

Secondly I would suggest that you look at the Marantz 5004 you can get one new for about $850 or a refurb/pre-owned from accessories4less.com for about $599 and they have a 1 yr warranty, so no worries there.

Otherwise Look at the Pioneer Elite VSX-21.

Thanks ill take a look at those right now. And thanks for the advice on the speakers, I don’t have them yet they are in my cart at Amazon ready to order so it’s easy to switch out.

If you can I think you should go demo some . Give some different brands A listen .
I like My Pioneer but there are others ~ As callas said Marantz ,Yamaha are good ones .
