Default AV Amp Recomendation

Hi, With my Yamaha kxv795 blowing up it's time to replace it.

I was hoping someone is able to recommend a new amp(recever).
I don't need anything v powerful but the extra power can/will help..

But I'll need to able to connect the flowing:

CD player
Turntable
dvd - compasite vide + digital Optical video.
Sky/Video player - compasite video + stereo audio
pc - compasite video + stereo audio/ Digital coax
and one extra AV connector.

Now I' ve been looking at the following:
Yamaha HTR5550rds £215
Yamaha RXV440RDS £200
Yamaha RXV640RDS £???

I don't need 6.1 but am looking @ 5.1 at a minimum.

Cheers
Dan

Hi Dan, I bought a Sony STR-DB780 about 2 months ago http://tinyurl.com/hdpi
It was rated a 7/10 value wise at £300, but at the £179 including shipping,
it was an absolute steal.
Plenty of bells and whistles to keep you amused for hours, and the
performance for the money is great.

I purchased it from http://www.digital-point.co.uk/default.asp . Their
service is exceptional and at £120 cheaper than Richer Sounds, with free
next day delivery, what more can I say.
However, they don't appear to have this amp on their web site at the moment,
although it's well worth a phone call as it was marked out of stock when I
bought it.
