The receiver you need for your home theater depends on a couple of things.  #1 How many speakers are you going to be using. 5,6 or 7 plus the subwoofer.  #2 how big or how many watts are your speakers rated for.  If your speakers are rated for 50watts and your amplifier is rated for 90Watts per channel then you have a good chance of blowing your speakers if you turn it up too loud. 

Onkyo makes everything from entry level to top of the line and everything inbetween.  If you are using really small speakers then purchse something lower end.  If you are going to be hooking up bigger speakers then buy a bigger receiver.  You can't go wrong with going right down the middle.  The Onkyo 507B would be a great piece.  It will allow you the best of everthing and is able to hook upto 7 speakers plus the sub.
