I'm looking at the following two receivers that are suppose to be out Sept/Oct. From the specs I have seen, they seem to offer pretty much the same features. The main thing I am looking for is HDMI conversion/switching. I want to upgrade, just not sure which route to take. I'll demo them both locally when they're out, but I wonder what's in the Denon that would justify the extra $500. Maybe better build or better sound? The Denon might have a RJ-45 jack which would allow you to play music from your PC, pretty cool.
