I totally agree. I'm in the same boat here. I've considered the Pio 1018. I like the look of it and people seem to be pretty excited about it. But you can't find it below the MSRP.
So I'm considering the Denon 988 (which is going for super cheap at CC right now), or Onkyo's 805, maybe 705.
I'm getting it more for movies over music, but definitely will appreciate the music sounding good when I use it for that.
Any suggestion of one over the other?
My speaker setup isn't awesome - basically a set of 5 jbl's that cost me about $500 at BB.
That'll probably be the next upgrade in a year or two.
Thanks for any ideas!
