To be honest you can't go wrong with any of them. I would look for the smaller receivers. I'm an old Marantz fan, and I seemed to always prefer their lower watt receivers over their larger ones.

Anything near the 2230 line will be more than you need. Even consider a 2216. Those little ones had the nicest sound.

However there is one caveat. Those receivers are aging out and are in need of a professional restoration. So if you pick one up, do consider that in the cost of buying it.

post any questions you may have on them.
