Thanks, E'pin... I'm aware that many people use receivers as a pre/pro with Outlaw amps, I was just curious if anyone had any direct experience with the HKs.

At this point it doesn't matter - I'll get to experience it for myself. I couldn't pass up the chance to pick up a refurb AVR235 (from Harman direct on Ebay) for $260. Among its many features is an AV Sync Delay, which I will likely need for this system, since I'll be running an upconverting DVD player (Denon DVD-2910) through 30' of component and/or DVI cable to a front projector. And when/if my needs change it will be easy to swap out that receiver for whatever the technology of the day is.
