I'm not trying to discourage anyone from looking at ampli-tuners (also called "receivers" in some languages, for bizarre reasons). I only have two complaints: one, they are mis-named in this particular language, and two, there is no such thing on the market as an A/V integrated surround amplifier. Of course those of us not in the business of manufacturing A/V gear cannot do anything about that second problem, but we can do something about the first!
