I've been running 2.1 in my living room connected to my htpc most the time, recently got a center and surround to fill out the 5.1, I'd like to grab another set of the surrounds and do 7.1. I currently use a Pioneer VSX-523. The only gripe I've had with this is a loss of sound once in awhile. Audio will cut out for a few seconds and start up. Has done it with my 970/290x/Furyx. I'd like a few more HDMI slots if possible, I'll be upgrading the main tv to 4k sometime this year so will need that support. $400-500 is the range I'd like to stay in.
Edit: My speaker setup is a pair of Energy RC-70, Klipsch R25C/pair of RB-10 and sub-12HG synergy series.
