Well to start off i want to buy a receiver for my basement. my basement is pretty small i need a receiver dat is the best for audio because i listen to music alot n i want to atleast like rattle the house lol. But i also see movies sometimes but i get my movies from the computer i burn them. So i aint worried if the movies dont sound good or not but wat i really want it for is to hear music and it to be real loud. I cant buy an expensive receiver it at least has to be below $450 plus i still need to buy the speakers would like if u guys would help me in buying real good audio speakers too well i think dats it thanks to all the people dat help me

Receiver- 1 unit built in with preamp, amp and tuner
Amplifier- makes sound louder so to drive speakers, need preamp
Preamp- drives Amp. Preamp by itself cannot drive speakers
Processors-plays with audio signal, may demultiplex, decode, not a preamp
Pre/Pro-- preamp/processor combo, usuall used in home theater
Receivers are usually compromises, to get the best sound u need to go to the basics as a pre/pro and separate amp (of good quality) system

The H/K AVR347 is about $470 USD and will do the job u ask of it. However it is a light weight entry level receiver (30.6 lbs) and will heat up with loud continuous playing.For hard playing, this receiver may not last as long as u expect, nor have the bass response (sledgehammer bass) you crave. For "sledgehammer bass", you need $$$ preamp/amp combos.

The pioneer is a 840 watt receiver at about $400, then tell me why a Krell Full Balanced Integrated amp at 800 watts, costs $15000 and weights in at 130 lbs is going to kick a$$ out of the pioneer amp?
I know that u r not made of money, but for all good things, saving and waiting to get the good stuff (not necessarily the big Krells) is well wothh it.Besides the world will not end in 2012, the God of Abraham, Issac and Jacob told me in a dream that the 2012 tale was a hoax.

Dude, I love spirituality also.
To answer your question a receiver DOES NOT need an amp.
But what u tell me from the beginning is that u want to play your music like I do, at life like levels- LOUD and CLEAR!
Cheap parts ain't gonna do it 4 ya. To do bass right, u need a high current amp (read $$$), otherwise no "sledgehammer bass" as I eluded to earlier.
Bottom line , you ain't gonna be a happy camper
