This is waaaaaay more receiver than you'll ever need at the shop.

But it'll certainly do everything you want it to.

I can't wait until Marquez gets on his level and makes Jorge trip on his tampon string.

but... his shop is not to be treated like some little 2 car garage.

Right now I just have a little cheesy $100 stereo but plan on doing a real setup with a good sized receiver and somewhere in the neighborhood of ten or so speakers

I know.

Whatever you get, Kev, you need to break it in correctly.

Might I make a suggestion?

This will do nicely. I've got my sniper on it.

I am a huge Denon fan though, but cheapness prevails.

I've got something similar to this here in the shop here-
http://www.accessories4less.com/make-a-store/item/ONKHTS3500/Onkyo-HT-S3500-5.1-Channel-Home-Theater-Package/1.html

do you need over the air radio, or is internet ok?
you might find a speaker dock (or bluetooth) that you could stream from your phone
as a bonus some are waterproof  and you could hose it off when it gets dusty

I ended up buying this

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/700w-stereo-system/1662019.p;jsessionid=983B49D13EB3B52C6B511C54C9F8328B.bbolsp-app01-112?id=1219074892312&skuId=1662019&st=categoryid$abcat0202002&cp=1&lp=4

I bought the 3 year warranty since we broke the last one in 1-1/2 and splurged on next day shipping. $241 total.

Happy.

Probably out of your budget but if you really want a system that can run at high volume 24/7 a 75V system is what you need. A crown amp and a few JBL control 25t's or 28t's will do the job and if you want you can always just add more speakers in line without having to worry about impedances. You may be able to find some stuff used from a restaurant that went out of business. If you have more speakers around you can also keep the volume lower.
