Re: When ranking the "best" receivers" shouldn't price also be a factor?

"Best" is only in some context. If it doesn't work in your system, it's not a "best". So each system (and that includes YOUR tastes) ought to have it's own list of bests.

Sure, price matters; but "fit" matters more.

I think this whole idea of ranking components on some hierarchy is misleading at best, and disastrous at its worst.

So, for the majority of buyers it's probably #3, What ever is hot this year.

The smart money is on "whatever works best in my system"; which is probably why you have heard much less expensive receivers sound as good or better.

But you already knew that, didn't you?
